◆Message from the CEO
MC Agri Alliance is a joint venture between Mitsubishi Corporation and Olam International, a major agricultural trading company in Singapore. We inherited the import businesses of food ingredients, such as coffee, cocoa, sesame, and dried vegetables, from both companies. Our mission is to steadily deliver safe, secure, and sustainable food ingredients to the Japanese market in collaboration with producers and business partners around the world.

[Attractive Points
■ Stable Management Base for Nuts, Beverage Ingredients, and Grains:
We have achieved a stable business flow by combining the robust procurement network of Olam International, listed on the Singapore Stock Exchange, with the Mitsubishi Corporation Group's sales network. Our business is steadily expanding.

■ Commitment to Quality and Compliance:
We have inherited the Mitsubishi Group's "Three Principles," and our environment encourages and emphasizes a strong commitment to compliance and quality.

■ Mid-Career Employees Thrive.
