Corporate Philosophy

Creating kando with products and services that exceed your expectations

Yamaha works to realize our corporate mission of creating Kando

For over 50 years, Yamaha Motor group has endeavored to create diverse value through products and services since its founding.

We have worked based on three ideas which constitute our “Corporate Philosophy”. One is our “Corporate Mission”, that is our core identity, values, purpose and visionary goals. The second is “Management Principles” - the guiding management principles for achieving our corporate mission. The third is “Action Guidelines”, the guidelines each individual should follow to realize our corporate mission.

Being the “Kando* creating company” is our goal to “offer new excitement and a more fulfilling life for people all over the world”. We strive to use our ingenuity and passion to realize peoples' dreams and always be the ones they look up to for “the next Kando*.”
