Based on our social responsibility policy to contribute to society comprehensively through our pillar toy business, the TOMY Group strives to attain the tandem goals of realizing a sustainable society and growing our Group business, fulfilling our sustainability vision of becoming friends with children around the world.

TOMY Group operations themselves will continue to pursue sustainability and CSR initiatives that can help us create new value and provide excitement, wonder, inspiration, and smiles to all people around the world who appreciate the benefits of play.

The following chart illustrates how sustainability and CSR is organized within the TOMY Group.

To mark the approach of our 100th anniversary in 2024 and help guide future society, we set medium-term sustainability targets and KPIs for FY2021-FY2023 and started other initiatives in 2021 in accordance with the TOMY Group Social Responsibility Framework. We have aligned our drive to fulfill social responsibility through business with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Going forward, we will work to ensure that our Group operations themselves can contribute to society in a more meaningful way than ever before.

We introduce how we determined our social responsibility framework and identified our material issues on separate special feature pages.

1. 1. Commitment to Quality Manufacturing

   Expand play for all to enjoy

   Be it different cultures, genders, disabilities and abilities, lifestyles or values, we live in a diverse world. We seek to help children grow by providing safe and secure toys that reflect such diversity and expanding play for children around the world to enjoy.

2. 2. Sound Management

   Be proud role models

   Our operational environment is greatly influenced by globalization and technological revolution, and the responsibility to conduct fair, honest business is growing as companies play an increasingly influential role in society. We should act as proud, respected role models for children and seek to create fun, comfortable working environments across the TOMY Group.

3. 3. Coexisting with Society
   and the Environment

   Protect the environment so children can smile in play 100 years from now

   Today’s society faces multiple pressing problems including the depletion of resources, climate change, and environmental issues. We seek to minimize the negative impact of our business, contribute to regional development and protect the environment to help preserve sustainable communities and the earth for future generations of children to smile and play with toys.

In pursuit of our sustainability vision, we contribute to the achievement of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the creation of a society that leaves no one behind.
