Our company supports April Dream, which aims to make April 1st a day to send out dreams. This press release is the dream of "We Visaipe."
## Our Dream
Our dream is that all the small and medium-sized manufacturing companies we work with become energized, and through their accumulated efforts, Japan's monozukuri (craftsmanship) continues in a good way.
This is based on something very personal, seemingly ordinary, yet something we deeply cherish.
To live in Japan, eating delicious food for a lifetime, surrounded by good things.
In this Japan,
Enjoying seasonal foods,
Touching tools that can be used for a long time,
Surrounded by safe products,
Continuing to live.
All of these are supported by someone's "monozukuri."
That is why we strongly wish for this foundation to continue.
## Background of the Dream
### The Reality of Small and Medium-sized Manufacturing
However, the actual manufacturing sites are rapidly shrinking.
manufaThe number of manufacturing companies decreased from 382,000 in 2016 to 337,000 in 2021.
Furthermore, in 2025, approximately 74% of the 4,496 exiting companies will be closures or dissolutions, not bankruptcies.
This shows the reality that "companies that truly want to continue but cannot" are increasing.
### What's Happening on the Ground
At the manufacturing sites, various challenges are overlapping.
Operations are highly specialized and reliant on individuals,
Know-how is becoming a black box,
New recruits are not coming and leave quickly,
IT is not being utilized effectively,
There are not enough people or money to invest,
And the business environment is becoming increasingly severe.
Everyone knows that things need to change.
Nevertheless, being caught up in daily tasks, they don't know where to start and are unable to take the first step towards change.
And as they grow older, they give up and close their businesses.
Such a situation continues at many small and medium-sized manufacturing sites.
## Visaipe's Initiatives
### Our Stance
We do not believe that we can change everything by ourselves.
That is why we choose to "face each company directly."
Rather than just speaking of grand ideals, we aim to create a state where the companies we work with can surely move forward.
We believe that this accumulation will ultimately support Japan's monozukuri.
### What Visaipe Does
We provide consistent hands-on support,
From visualization and redesign of operations,
Selection, introduction, and establishment of IT,
To on-site implementation.
We provide support.
The important thing is not just the introduction. It is that "the site changes and results are achieved."
It's not about just superficially changing operations and being done, nor is it about just installing IT tools and being done; it's about being used on-site.
