SEI Business Creates, Inc. ("SBC") was established in 1956 as Sumiden Engineering Support, Ltd. (abbreviated "Sumigi"), to provide a wide range of products and services to Sumitomo Electric Group companies and the employees in their factories and offices. The company was renamed in 2003. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all Sumitomo personnel for their patronage for over half a century. |

Workplace atmosphere
"SHOP CREO Itami" at Itami Sales Office
Last year was one of drastic changes, such as the marked increase in sales of soft drinks due to the scorching heat during the summer and an almost instantaneous last-minute surge in demand for cigarettes immediately before the price increase. Under such circumstances, true to the shop name "Creo," the Latin word for creation, we all remained creative in coming up with ideas for further sales promotion and service improvement. We have been quite successful with the sale of 100-yen sports drinks and drinks bearing lottery numbers sold from automatic vending machines. At Itami Works, we have community-wide events, such as the Inari Festival in spring and the Green-Floral Festival in autumn, on which occasions we sell drinks and sweets. Our black beans in particular, a Tanba-Sasayama region specialty sold at the Green-Floral Festival, has been growing in popularity, selling more than the previous year. Last year, our shop welcomed new members, and the workplace has become even more vibrant. We are good friends even after working hours, some of us going on holiday trips together. We have a cheerful and harmonious workplace, and are all very active both at work and play.
