Shofu unveils Vision10 for ambitious growth, global top-10 dental goal

Shofu Group has formulated "Vision10," a new long-term vision targeting 2040, to achieve 250 billion yen in revenue and a 20% operating margin, positioning itself among the global top 10 dental companies. This strategic roadmap builds on its corporate philosophy and addresses structural industry shifts driven by technological innovation and demographic changes.

The vision outlines a phased growth scenario, projecting approximately 5x net sales and 6.6x operating income growth from fiscal year 2028 levels. This expansion will be fueled by three strategic pillars: strengthening core franchises in restorative materials, accelerating global and digital initiatives, and creating and entering new business domains beyond dentistry.

Shofu's current Fifth Medium-Term Management Plan, which concludes in fiscal year 2028 with a 50 billion yen target, serves as the foundation for Vision10. The company plans to enhance its "execution and co-creation capabilities" by fiscal year 2029 and beyond, focusing on organic growth, partnerships, and M&A to expand into high-growth areas like digital dentistry, preventive care, and orthodontics, both domestically and internationally.
