Since our inception, FURUNO has been continually helping
people see things that are beyond the realm of visibility.
Through exhaustive research and development,
we create and implement our innovative technologies to solve
any problem, seen or unseen.
This mentality resulted in our invention of theworldʼ s ﬁrst ﬁsh ﬁnder.

P R E S I D E N T ʼS M E S S A G E
Contributing to Sustainable Development of Local
Communities and Society through Increased Value toCustomers and Enhanced Corporate Values

However, the products FURUNO manufactures go far beyond making things visible.
By making the invisible visible, we encounter new possibilities that we werenʼ t aware of before.
This not only beneﬁts those who directly use our instruments, but it also affects the lifestyles
of many people beyond them.

In 2018, the FURUNO Group formulated the “NAVI NEXT 2030” global vision consistingof a “Business Vision” and a “Human Resources and Corporate Culture Vision” to beachieved by 2030.

By looking at things from a customerʼ s point of view, we can see the problems at hand and ﬁnd
new possibilities that were previously beyond the realm of visibility.

Our business vision is to achieve better safety, security, and comfort to bring about asociety and sea navigation that considers the needs of people and the environment. Thisvision prioritizes not only safety and security in addition to the environment but also creates
an inspiring, comfortable society for all. Meanwhile, our human resources and corporate
culture vision, “Value through globalization and speed” , is an extolment of the virtueof working together to create value through globalization and speed.

And by analyzing the way we live,
FURUNO continues to create new values that are not yet visible to the human eye.

Through the development of various activities aimed at realizing this management vision,
we will continuously and progressively enhance both the value we provide to customers andour corporate value.

help prevent collisions and ensure safe

ships, which do not appear on radar because
they are hidden in the shadow of islands.
