With the belief of "service to society," our founder Hiroshi Morishita has provided products that contribute to people's health and affluent lives since our founding in 1893. At that time, it was developed as a comprehensive health aid for the pocket (then the large red Jintan pill). Later, the silver pill "Jintan" (currently quasi-drug sales name: Jintan N), which is familiar as a breath freshener, inspired the development of our proprietary "seamless capsule technology," through which we are expanding our business domain. Through the accumulation of our herbal medicine research and the establishment and nurturing of our unique technologies, we conduct corporate activities in a wide range of fields.

The Company celebrated its 130th anniversary on February 11, 2023, and on this occasion, we formulated our purpose to aim for further enhancement of corporate value.
