Our Stakeholders

DENSO conducts its business activities amid relationships with a diverse group of stakeholders. Building good relationships with these stakeholders is extremely important in order to enhance corporate value. To that extent, we repeatedly hold dialogues with all of our stakeholders to avoid engaging solely in activities born of accepted logic and assumptions held within the Company.
We will reflect on collected feedback and the needs of society in all of our business activities as we work to fulfill our social responsibility.

* Referencing ISO 26000, an international standard for social responsibility, this page lists information on stakeholders who have a close relationship with DENSO’s business activities.

While most of our customers are global automobile manufacturers, retailers, and consumers, our business does not stop there. We have customers in a variety of industries, including distribution, transportation infrastructure, agriculture, and factory automation. By deepening our understanding regarding the needs and expectations of our customers, including those related to product functionality, through continuous dialogues with them, we will create products and services that earn the trust of our customers and truly satisfy them. In this way, we will meet customer expectations and achieve growth as a company.
