Sanyo

SANYO' founder, the late Toshio Iue, gave the company its name. "SANYO" means "three oceans" -specifically, the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans: in other words, the entire world. Our founder had the earnest ambition to conduct business throughout the world, maximizing the company's three core assets: excellent human resources, superior technologies and first-class service. Thus the company name also implies its business territory and policy.

The founder once stated his principle in this way: "As a corporation, we seek to be like the sun, which shines upon all alike, regardless of race, creed, religion or difference in wealth." As is expressed in his statement, SANYO Electric Group has always sought to be essential to people everywhere in the world?like the sun, that shines upon all.

The sun can represent various meanings, but SANYO Electric Group aims to be:

• Lively (endless vigor and energy)
• Indispensable (creative and innovative technologies)
• Warm (wholehearted sincerity and dedication)
