Mission

Corporate Philosophy

The Ricoh Group's corporate philosophy is based on three Founding Principles laid down by our founder, Kiyoshi Ichimura. He summarized his thinking as follows:
As children we exist only for ourselves with no thoughts for anyone else. As we mature, however, feelings of love begin to grow, eventually expanding to include all people, all living things on this planet.

These founding principles drive the Ricoh Group's commitment toward better sustainable management.
