Customer Relationship

Basic Approach

As we declare in our corporate philosophy, the Fujifilm Group aims to provide the best quality products and services which are safe, appealing to customers and provide them with peace of mind, by basing our management on Customer Satisfaction (CS).” In order to achieve customer satisfaction, it is important to obtain the views of a wide range of customers and to have a mechanism in place for effectively reflecting these in our products and services. For this purpose, we pay special attention to communicating with our customers at customer centers which are our point of contact with them. We aim to correctly grasp their views, as well as seek to respond in a speedy, kind, accurate and fair manner, and we are constructing a system to link these views to improvements in product development and our work processes.

Structure for Customer Relationship
In addition to the results of market research, information such as comments, requests and evaluations received at the Customer Support Center and on the website are reflected in CS improvement activities at contact points with customers, each core group and top management.

Mechanisms for Communicating with Customers

We identify our market position and issues in terms of customer satisfaction through Competitive Benchmarking CS Program, and then make improvements. Furthermore, we enhance relationships with individual customers by promoting improvements based on customer evaluations.
