We aim to “Be a Global Winner with Our Heritage.” To achieve our corporate mission, we have devised WIN 2023 and Beyond, our new medium-to-long-term strategy in response to the drastically changing landscape. Under this strategy, Shiseido is committed to fundamental reforms, including business portfolio enhancement, improved profitability, and digital transformation, to become a company that creates value now and in the future.

Our value creation strategy is underpinned by our value drivers that are Shiseido’s unique assets unmatched by other companies. These drivers have matured in the century and a half since our founding and are entwined in OUR DNA, one of Shiseido’s core strengths. This in turn shapes OUR PRINCIPLES, which serve to guide the convictions of every employee at Shiseido. However, successful value creation requires continuous evolution, and we believe that our diverse professionals and ongoing beauty innovations will fuel long-term growth under WIN 2023 and Beyond.
