The Produce & Foodstuffs Division conducts businesses in two fields. One is the grains business, which handles livestock feed, oil seeds, rice, wheat and raw sugar. The other is the foodstuffs business, which mainly handles food ingredients and prepared frozen foods.In the grains business, one of our strengths lies in our feed processing complexes, centering on four grain silos in Japan. We supply grains via a dedicated pipeline, which extends from these silos with piers for the docking of large vessels to blended feed makers located further inland.We are one of the leading handlers of feed grain in Japan. We have established a comprehensive value chain through which we import wheat from the U.S. and other countries and sell flour to China and Southeast Asia using our efficient proprietary sales network.In the foodstuffs area, we meet diversifying needs through our various food processing businesses, which draw on processing bases in Japan and overseas. We are also strengthening our food safety management systems. For example, we established a Food Safety Promotion Office within the Division to strengthen traceability and other important safety management functions.
