· Philosophy
The overall Toyo Tires philosophy is formed of the company philosophy that is the spirit of ourestablishment; our mission that defines our purpose within society; our vision that states what kindof company we want to be to achieve our mission; and the Toyo Way、which is the set of our
fundamental values that form the basis for thinking and are equally valued by all of our executives
and employees in striving to achieve our vision.
One of the goals in our vision is to be a company that "shares in the enjoyment felt by everyone
involved in our activities," and we recognize that respect for human rights forms the foundation of
this. We thus believe it necessary to have zero tolerance of all forms of slavery and human trafficking
within Toyo Tires and our supply chain.
