to Japanese page
During the evening of May 3, 2022, Tokyo time, someone posted on a social media platform (SNS) what appeared to be a quote from a past statement by Tadashi Yanai, Fast Retailing Chairman, President and CEO, regarding employee remuneration. This post spread widely on SNS during the past two days, but it has since been deleted.
Fast Retailing confirms that Tadashi Yanai never made such a statement and what was posted on SNS is erroneous and false. The company also confirms that if in the future, any erroneous or false information will be disseminated, it will cooperate with relevant authorities and take necessary steps including legal action.
