The reasons the company gives

The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.

As demand for Japanese food grows across ASEAN, the company aims to produce and supply products that meet overseas standards from a location close to the market, shortening delivery times to Thailand and other ASEAN countries. It also plans to establish a system for providing Japanese-quality kitchen products by transferring its quality-control framework and manufacturing expertise developed in Japan.
