Company Visit to Swan

Today I was able to visit the company Swan in Tokyo Japan and learn how they market, operations and its goals. Swan is specializes in bakery items and was established by Yamata holdings. The uniqueness about the company Swan was how they helped the disabled. I learned that the spirit of Swan is that they combine the non-disable and the disable to cooperate together in their work environment. Swan is also driven to help disable people be independent. Compared to Japan itself, Swan helps more disable people than other companies in Japan.  Swan also compared to the index of the stock market is actually on the same path, which shows that having disable workers is just as efficient as having only non-disable workers.

Recently Swan was just bought out by Ben & Jerry ice cream which was a success story from the Swan Company. Swan Company has a cookie that Ben & Jerry use in there ice cream only in Japan. Swan Company was an interesting company and I really enjoyed how they combine the non-disable and the disable to cooperate with one another. I also enjoyed the ice cream they gave us Coffee Blast from Ben & Jerry's that is only in Japan.
