Masayuki Sato, President and Representative Director

Ever since our founding in 1970, Tenox Corporation has established the “Tenox Brand” in foundation work. Our brand is built on the trust of customers and society. I would like to express my deepest gratitude for your patronage.

As embodied by our company name, our founder Zenjiro Yasuda launched the Tenox Corporation with ten youths as ox driven by a strong passion to contribute to society through the development of new foundation work methods friendly to the environment and high-quality construction that earns trust. We have continued to conduct business with human dignity as the basis of management. Tenox Corporation will carry on the passion of our founder, who advocated ESG management for more than 50 years, in initiatives around the three basic strategies of development, sales and construction, and ESG as outlined in our medium-term management plan (FY2021 to FY2023). We will develop foundation work methods to achieve decarbonization. We will contribute to national resilience through foundation work for businesses developing redundancy throughout the nation. We will also take steps such as creating rewarding and people-friendly workplaces, promoting health management and the acquisition of paternal leave, with consideration for people. As times change, we will quickly identify the needs of society as well as proactively and consistently create and provide new added value to both customers and society.

Tenox Corporation will continue to fulfill its corporate social responsibilities over the next 50 years as a sustainable company by meeting the expectations of all stakeholders and never forgetting the gratitude that we have felt until now.

I look forward to your continued support and patronage.

Masayuki Sato, President and Representative Director
