The Moriroku Group was established in 1663, making it the oldest chemical specialty group in Japan with a history spanning over 360 years. We would like to express our sincerest gratitude to our customers, business partners, and other stakeholders for their support and cooperation, which have enabled us to continue for so long.

From Awa (Tokushima), where the company was founded, we gradually expanded our business to the distribution of natural raw materials such as indigo and fertilizers throughout Japan. In 1909, we began importing and selling chemical products. In 1958, we commenced production of plastic parts and began our journey as an automotive parts manufacturer. In the 1980s, we embarked on a global expansion strategy, initially focusing on North America and subsequently expanding our reach to Asia, China, and other regions. In 2017, we had the privilege of listing our shares on the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange. In 2022, we had the opportunity to re-allocate to the Prime Market. As a public company, we are committed to constructive dialogue and value co-creation with our stakeholders through more transparent management and thorough legal compliance than ever before.

As we expand our business into the resin processing products and chemical businesses, we are currently facing an era of great change in which our business environment and people's lifestyles and awareness are intricately intertwined by a variety of factors, large and small. These include the development of digital technology, market globalization, growing social concern about sustainability, and geopolitical issues. Our predecessors have created the values demanded by the times with an "enterprising spirit" without being bound by past successes or achievements. By leveraging the "DNA of innovation" cultivated through our long history, we will strive to create the synergy between "manufacturer" and "trading company" and work as one to achieve new growth that will lead us to the next stage of becoming a "400-year company" and build our future.

We are grateful for your continued support and encouragement for the Moriroku Group.
