Since the launch in 1922 of the nutritious and fortified Glico caramel in its distinctive red box, the business activities of Ezaki Glico have adhered to the corporate philosophy of "Enhancing Public Health Through Food." Upon the 70th anniversary of Ezaki Glico in 1992, this same spirit and dedication have been incorporated into the revised corporate philosophy of "A Wholesome Life in the Best of Taste." Glico caramel – the company's first product – incorporates the innovative creativeness of Mr. Riichi Ezaki, the company's founder. From the beginning, all personnel working for the company have been dedicated to further enhancing people's health and quality of life. This has led to the expansion of business lines beyond confectionery to include ice cream products, processed foods, desserts, milk products, baby formula, food ingredients, and ingredients for cosmetic and health products.
