A company-wide effort to improve the level of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) is at the core of the manufacturing of trustworthy pharmaceuticals. For 110 years since the time of delivering drugs directly to households, Oishi Koseido has continually endeavored to improve day-to-day employee activities and enhanced the accumulated knowhow of formulations and quality management in compliance with international standards. Manufacturing reliable pharmaceuticals is part of the corporate guiding principle, but we will not settle for this. Rather, we will continue to repeat the process of performance improvement and prevent errors in our daily activities.

Team efforts to support reliability

To start with, we always respond with a Yes.
We change the drug compounds one by one and we repeatedly carry out verifications. We value agility and flexibility in addressing challenges amid these tremendous research and development efforts. In an environment where new ideas are always required, such an open-minded approach has led to the acquisition of knowhow unique to Oishi Koseido.
The day-to-day accumulated knowledge is refined and passed on to our formulation technology

Driving motivation together

“We enhance our motivation by constantly looking for points to improve. The driving force of motivation is the desire to proactively seek better ways of doing things.
Once manufacturing starts, it tends to turn into routine work. At such times, the staff on the manufacturing floor asks members to look for points where improvements can be made. Step by step, the team gets closer to perfection by re-examining the daily routines.” The team tries out suggestions for improvements that will lead to better results. We aim for day-to-day efficiency on the manufacturing floor while enjoying the pleasure of producing one thing together.

Celebrating 110 Years of Reliability

“Getting repeatable and reproducible test results is a standard practice.”
We perform tests while rigorously following the established procedures to confirm that the measurement values are within the specified range. We recognize the benefits gained from teamwork synergies in allocating tasks. For example, a task performed by one person is independently verified by a second person. In the presence of discrepancy, we resort to timely measurement and management of such variability that results in a continuous cycle of improvement.
Our 110 years of history and dedication in manufacturing trustworthy pharmaceuticals has been the driving force in building credibility and earning trust of many corporations and customers.
