  • Profile: Our History Is The Story Of Continuous Discoveries Of The Potentials Of Amino Acids, Which Are Renowned For Their Diverse Health Benefits As Well As Their Taste-enhancing Properties. Aiming To Be A Japan-based Global Company, We Will Develop Our Corporate Activities In The Food And Amino Acid Businesses In The Most Appropriate Way To Achieve This Aim. At First Sight, The Promise Ajinomoto Works For Life May Seem Quite Bold. Yet, I Believe This Exactly Reflects Our Corporate Purpose As We Embark On Our Next 100 Years As A Company. The History Of Ajinomoto Co., Inc. Began Almost A Century Ago With The Discovery By Professor Kikunae Ikeda Of Tokyo Imperial University That Glutamate, A Kind Of Amino Acid, Was The Source Of Umami, The Distinctive Taste Commonly Found In Savory Foods Worldwide. One Such Food, Kombu Dashi, A Soup Stock Made With Kelp, Had Long Been Used As A Base Cooking Ingredient In Japan. Driving Dr. Ikeda's Research Was His Desire To Promote Nutritional Conditions In The Japanese Diet, Which Despite Containing Sufficient Nutrients, Was Poor At The Time. Enhancing Taste And Flavor In The Meager Meals Of The Day, Dr. Ikeda Believed, Would Improve Digestion And The Absorption Of Nutrients. Successfully Isolating Glutamate From Kombu Dashi And Identifying It As The Source Of Umami, Dr. Ikeda Invented An Umami Seasoning That Gave A Savory Taste To All Kinds Of Foods. Over The Course Of The Decades Since, This Seasoning Has Contributed To Happier Diets All Around The World. Moreover, Dr. Ikeda's Research And Discovery Of Glutamate And The Umami Taste Laid The Groundwork For Ajinomoto's Subsequent Work In Nutrition, Pharmaceuticals And, Of Course, Food Products, In Which Our Focus Has Remained The Joy Of Good Health And Well Being. Underpinning All Our Work Then And Now Has Been Amino Acids Research. Without Doubt, The Potential Benefits For Life Held By Amino Acids Are Without Limit. For A Century, We Have Worked To Prove This Fact By Pioneering A Wide Range Of Products That Improve People's Lives. At The Threshold Of Our Second Century As A Company, I Want Everyone—our Customers, Employees, Business Partners And Shareholders Alike—to Understand That A Leading Food And Nutrition Company With Unparalleled Knowledge In Amino Acids Has The Responsibility To Work For Life. In Our Origins, I Believe You Can See Our Future. Ajinomoto Will Continue To Work To Discover The Value Of Amino Acids For Human Life And To Deliver Their Benefits To People Around The World. We Will Not Limit Our Endeavors To Making Products, But Will Strive To Assure That All Our Activities Are Earth Friendly And Make Contributions Of Real Value To Society. Another A Century Of Remarkable Progress For Life Is Within Our Reach.
