4th April 2024 – Mitsui & Co., Ltd. (“Mitsui”, Head Office: Tokyo, President and CEO: Kenichi Hori) has decided to acquire shares in Eu Yan Sang International Ltd (“EYS”, Head Office: Singapore) jointly with ROHTO Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

Eu Yan Sang, founded in 1879, is a leading integrative health and wellness company with a unique heritage in Traditional Chinese Medicine (“TCM”) that operates over 170 retail outlets and 30 clinics in its core Singapore, Hong Kong, and Malaysia markets. Eu Yan Sang also has a significant network across 29 markets, including manufacturing capabilities in Malaysia and Hong Kong. Through its comprehensive and modern product portfolio, combined with a strong emphasis on continuous product innovation, Eu Yan Sang seeks to empower customers to live their best quality of life by providing health and wellness solutions rooted in TCM wisdom.

In 2018, Mitsui invested in Thorne HealthTech Inc., an American manufacturer and supplier of advanced functional supplements. Since then, Mitsui has worked to build a science-based, individualized solutions business for pre-symptomatic conditions. Mitsui invested in EYS through the fund and has since contributed to the expansion of EYS’ business by helping to enhance the value of the EYS brand and supporting the company’s overseas expansion. Through these activities, Mitsui reconfirmed EYS’s strong business potential and how Mitsui could contribute to its business expansion, which led to Mitsui’s decision to re-invest in EYS with ROHTO and the founding family through the SPC. Leveraging the competitiveness of EYS’ brand and products in Asia and ROHTO’s R&D and marketing capabilities, Mitsui will work to create an innovative new business.

Mitsui has identified “Wellness Ecosystem Creation” as one of its key strategic initiatives in the Medium-term Management Plan 2026. Through the provision of healthcare, preventive care, and solutions for pre-symptomatic conditions, as well as the supply of foods that offer health benefits, Mitsui will contribute to the qualitative enhancement of today’s increasingly diverse consumer lifestyles. Mitsui will continue to support the realization of richer and brighter lives by enhancing health and well-being through its contributions in the area of preventive care and solutions for pre-symptomatic conditions.

ROHTO’s corporate purpose is to lead all individuals and society to a state of well-being by delivering health to people around the world through its products and services. The development of its business in line with this purpose is guided by its business domain vision 2030, which calls for further expansion and reinforcement of its core business activities in the areas of OTC pharmaceuticals, skincare products, and other food items.
