We, at Fuji Xerox, are working to establish favorable relationships with business partners with whom we share a common corporate philosophy and policy. We consider ensuring fairness and equity in our procurement activities to be one of our most fundamental and paramount ethical standards and, to this end, we intend to promote clean procurement activities both from the perspective of the environment and society. At the same time, we will make a concerted effort to contribute to the regional economies in which our business sites are located and to promote local procurement of raw materials and parts in our pursuit of optimum quality and price.

In February 2009, we conducted an “Explanatory Meeting on CSR Activities” for the primary business partners of our contractor FUJIFILM LOGISTICS Co., Ltd., for the purpose of promoting an understanding of CSR as well as providing support for their CSR activities.

In terms of Fuji Xerox's copier and printer paper, we have taken initiatives toward procurement that takes into consideration the environment, health and safety.
