Mission
Believe in the power of cosmetics,
and create a more beautiful world
Do you remember the first date you had with the person you love? I do remember that I was so happy, and I couldn't stop smiling and blushing all night long. What I am talking about is that I am always reminded of this when I see people wearing makeup and smiling when they look in the mirror.
Personal Care Product/Cosmetics have great power. Not only do they make people feel beautiful, but they also have the magic to enrich our minds and make us feel confident and positive about ourselves. I think that is why it makes people smile. Also, the time we spend putting on makeup is an important time for us to face ourselves.
I seriously believe that the world will become a more beautiful and peaceful place if we can spread those products around the world.
To realize this, I am working day and night with my global colleagues, but we face various problems to overcome day by day. We sometimes crush each other with different opinions and creates conflicts, because we are a diverse group of people with different ways of thinking and cultures.
In the midst of these challenges, our committed mission/belief of "Believe in the power of cosmetics, and create a more beautiful world" is what supports all of us. In addition, working with a diverse group of global colleagues is not easy actually because of our differences, but I enjoy these differences and love working with various different people.
From 2023, Sumitomo Corporation will transfer its shares of the subsidiary companies in Brazil, France, and Germany over to us, Summit Cosmetics, and we become the headquarters of these companies (the US company will be consolidated in or after 2024). The consolidated scale will be about 200 employees, with sales of about 200 million US dollars and more than 2,000 global customers, which are our crucial valuable assets.
I look forward to working with those companies/people who share our vision of "Believe in the power of cosmetics, and create a more beautiful world."
Let's make beauty together!
