We will continue finding innovative ways to meet customer needs and contribute to healthy diets so that Meiji products always bring smiles to customers’faces.

Offering a Product Lineup for All Ages To deliver products to customers safely, we strengthen safety

initiatives day-to-day. As part of these efforts, Meiji has established a qual ity management system that encompasses al l group companies, called the Meiji Quality Communication system.

Under the Meiji Quality Communication system, we view quality as a product’s safety and value. Throughout food supply chains, weidentify and evaluate potential risks and determine and implement procedures for rationally lowering them to acceptable levels. We apply the system to all functions, from product design and development through to raw material procurement, production, logistics, sales, and communication with customers. This enables each employee to respond sincerely to customers and provide high-quality, safe products and services.

Advancing Quality Initiatives

Our Customer Service Center responds to customer inquiries promptly and appropriately. In addition, it provides in-house operations with customer feedback, which we reflect to improve or develop products and services and other corporate activities. Our counseling office for mothers with infants not only responds to product inquiries but also gives advice on child raising in general.

Other initiatives include food education activities designed to heighten interest in healthy diets. These activities focus on such familiar products as milk and chocolate and having fun while learning about food’s importance and gratitude for food. We offer abroad range of programs for customers of all ages, including food seminars, cooking classes, and on-site classes for elementary and junior high schools nationwide. Moreover, seven of our plants in Japan have centers where people can observe and learn about our manufacturing processes.
