Supply Chain Management
In order for corporations to ensure a stable supply of products and contribute to the realization of a sustainable society as part of their social responsibility, it is important for them to build relationships of trust and cooperate not only within themselves but also with their business partners, and such initiatives are essential across the entire value chain. To this end, continuous efforts to assess and mitigate risks in the supply chain are required throughout the value chain. SHIONOGI is committed to strengthening supply chain management in cooperation with our suppliers in accordance with our Procurement Policy and the SHIONOGI Group Business Partner Code of Conduct, which set forth a fundamental approach to conducting procurement activities founded on honesty, fairness, equity, and transparency, and to realizing a sustainable society along the entire value chain.
