To reduce environmental impact and create a recycling-oriented society,
we aim tobe a corporate citizen that is friendly to people and the earth.
Since our founding, we at Fujita Kanko have operated under the corporate philosophy: “We aspire to contribute to the realization of a vibrant and prosperous society by providing wholesome places of relaxation and warm service.” Guided by this philosophy, we have recognized “environmental initiatives” and “efforts to embrace diverse values” as essential and vital to our sustainable growth as a company, and have actively pursued them. These initiatives are closely aligned with the concept of sustainability, which aims to realize a sustainable society.Moving forward, we will continue to strive to resolve social issues and realize a sustainable society through our business operations.
What are the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals)?

All stakeholders, including companies, governments, and NPOs, are expected to work together to implement this plan.
