President Message

I’m Yo Kozuki, who was appointed as CEO and president on June 20.
While feeling gratitude toward the founding family as they have grown our company in the long history of nearly 80 years, I aim to realize a true public company. We will shift to a system with “business administration involving all staff” and aim to speedy management for responding to changes.

In 1946, the business of S. T. Corporation started with the manufacturing and sale of mothproofing agents to prevent moths from eating kimonos. Since then, our company has grown by solving a variety of trouble and inconvenience in daily life and bringing “freshness and comfort” to customers while creating new markets. The environment surrounding our business is changing on a daily basis, through the changes in values and lifestyles of consumers, rises in prices of raw materials and energy costs, geopolitical risks, global climate change, the growth of awareness of sustainability, etc. In order to offer new value to customers in this age with uncertainties and rapid changes, we need to be bright and cheerful and constantly take on challenges.
Since the inauguration of business, S. T. Corporation has been grasping the changes in customers’ lifestyles and tackling their trouble. While inheriting its good DNA, all of our employees join hands to improve our corporate value.

In FY 3/2024, we will work on “concentrating on the existing core business and improving its profitability,” “measures for coping with the skyrocketing of costs,” “continuous investment in growing domains,” and “development of a system for surviving the ESG era” under a new structure, carry out investment for sustainable growth, and make our organization robust enough to survive the rapidly changing times.
All of us will join hands to work on these measures. We would appreciate your further support and encouragement.

June 20, 2023
Yo Kozuki
Chairman of the Board, President & CEO
