Mutual Understanding with Business Partners

  The Yamaha Group considers suppliers and subcontractors to be partners in its effort to live up to the Group's business philosophy. Accordingly, the Group strives to build relationships of growing mutual trust based on open and fair business dealings.

  On this basis, the Group has worked diligently to incorporate this concept into its Compliance Code of Conduct and to implement education and training programs for its employees while gaining the understanding of business partners. These endeavors are aimed at avoiding any abuse of a dominant bargaining position and to ensure that transactions remain open and fair adhering strictly to statutory requirements as well as internal regulations and standards.

  In order to ensure a better understanding of its stance toward the procurement of materials and components, the Yamaha Group makes public the Yamaha Material and Component Procurement Policy, the Green Procurement Standards and the Yamaha Timber Procurement and Usage Guidelines. Every effort is also made to obtain the cooperation of suppliers.
