As We Have Been, As We Will Be

“Providing a healthy and civilized way of life”—This was the vision of our founder, and it has been continuously passed on to each of our employees as the TOTO Group Corporate Philosophy.
This vision has lasted over a century and serves as the center of the TOTO Group’s management and the touchstone for our craftsmanship and sales activities.
We will work to ensure this vision gets passed along to future generations by delivering safe and reliable TOTO-brand products and services to customers around the world. In doing so, we will “create an enriched and more comfortable lifestyle and culture built on our plumbing products.” This is a key facet of the TOTO Group Corporate Philosophy.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

President,
Representative Director

Shinya Tamura

TOTO's founder, Kazuchika Okura, sent a letter to the Company's second president, containing the words: “ Kindness must always come first. Your goal should be to provide good products and satisfy the customer. Accomplish that, and profit and prosperity will follow.” This message has been passed down from generation to generation of TOTO presidents as the words of our forebears. As TOTO's 18th president, I will also position this way of thinking at the core of my management activities as I lead the approximately 35,000 TOTO Group employees working around the world as we seek to increase the number of TOTO fans worldwide.


I believe that the TOTO Group's greatest strength is its people. I believe that TOTO's pride and source of corporate value is that all group employees around the world—from research and product development to production, sales, and indirect departments—share the philosophy of “ All for the customer;” and that they think of their colleagues and help each other to improve.


The environment surrounding TOTO is changing rapidly, and it is clear that this situation will only continue to accelerate in the future. To keep up with these changes and pace of change, I would like us to make decisions more quickly than ever before, without fear of failure, and place importance on communication in order to achieve this.


The TOTO Group's TOTO WILL 2030 strategy for creating shared value, which sets out the Group's vision for 2030, has now reached its halfway point. Going forward, we will continue to push ahead without fear of change, taking into account the lessons learned in Stage 1, and envisage a grand design for the TOTO Group beyond 2030.
