This year, 120 new employees joined the company, and the ceremony was attended by President and Representative Director Hiroshi Ueno, the management team, and senior employees. The president congratulated each new employee on their start and gave a message about the company’s philosophy, future prospects, and expectations. The new employees listened with serious expressions to his words of
encouragement, saying, “Even though you may be worried about joining the workforce, I want you to be prepared to take on challenges, to fail without hesitation, and to grow.” Koki Ocho, a representative of the new employees, gave his response and expressed his strong determination, saying, “Based on our philosophy of “creating an era in which glasses play a leading role,” we will continue to take on challenges with passion.” Those words were met with warm applause from senior employees at the venue. In addition, we received special video messages for new employees from professional volleyball players Yuki Ishikawa, Mayu Ishikawa, and Japan national fencing member Misaki Emura. In the video, Yuki Ishikawa said, “Understand what you can do now and clear each small goal in front of you,” while Mayu Ishikawa strongly encouraged the players, “I’m sure there are many things you’re worried about, but it will definitely lead to growth, so please do your best.” Emura sent a warm message to the new employees, saying, “There are times when we make mistakes and feel anxious as we grow, but let’s rely on those around us, learn a lot, and do our best together to do what we can.” Words of encouragement from top athletes gave the new employees great courage and hope. At this induction ceremony, some new employees voluntarily wore light-colored sunglasses for commemorative photos, making the scene memorable for their style. Although the style of wearing a suit with sunglasses is not often seen, its sophisticated atmosphere gave a sense of new possibilities. Wearing sunglasses in formal occasions such as entrance ceremonies is an expression of Zoff’s desire for people to enjoy wearing sunglasses in any situation. In recent years, as people have become more conscious of protecting their eye health both indoors and outdoors, including in business settings, sunglasses have become increasingly important. Zoff promotes the fusion of sunglasses with all styles, from formal to casual, and aims to establish a culture where sunglasses are worn in all situations. The appearance of the new employees at this induction ceremony was a symbolic moment that embodies this philosophy. Zoff values ​​creating an environment where each employee can demonstrate their individuality and abilities, and will support new employees to grow and play an active role. As colleagues who will create the future together, we will do our best to support the challenges of new employees.

expectations. In society, you have responsibilities and are required to be independent. What is important in such an environment is the ability to turn negative emotions into positive ones. As you gain experience, you will naturally gain confidence, and sometimes it is important to move forward with determination rather than worrying. Don’t be afraid of failure and be proactive. Rather, try to fail. Because failure creates new insights and becomes the driving force for growth. Take advantage of your failures and take on new challenges without hesitation. Your challenges and growth will lead to a better future. I look forward to your success. ■Greetings from new employee representative Koki Ocho (excerpt)

I am confident that here is a place where you can meet Zoff’s philosophy and realize your dreams. After joining the company, you will work closely with the customers in front of you and help them discover new versions of themselves through glasses. We aim not only to correct vision, but also to provide customer service that allows customers to enjoy their individuality with glasses, and we continue to passionately take on challenges based on our philosophy of “creating an era in which glasses play a leading role.” ”
