Contribution to the Achievement of SDGs

The NISSIN FOODS Group is working to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which consist of 17 goals and 169 targets for the world by 2030. Besides the rise in consumer health awareness, ethical consumption—which is the selection and purchase of environmentally and socially friendly products—is also growing, and the Group sees this as a prime chance to expand business opportunities. Going forward, we will continue undertaking business activities with the aim of creating a sustainable environment and society.
