Biodiversity conservation

Our business and biodiversity

Biodiversity is necessary for nature to self-correct, but as global warming and environmental pollution from human activity grow increasingly serious, the ongoing loss of biodiversity has become an issue. The Yakult Group clearly stipulates in one of the Action Directives in the Yakult Basic Policy on the Environment that “In all business activities, business units will give due consideration to the environment as well as biodiversity by promoting the reduction of environmental impacts.” We believe it is essential to consider the global environment and biodiversity in our corporate activities that aim to benefit the health of our customers. We will strive to conserve biodiversity going forward through efforts such as working with local communities on forest conservation activities.
