Introduction

Circulating all values and expanding the possibilities of all people

In 2013, Mercari was born from the social mission of founder Shintaro Yamada, who wondered, "What can we do to create a richer society, given that the Earth's resources are limited?" We believe that by circulating not only physical goods and money but also all values, we can increase the choices for realizing what people want to do and contribute to individuals and society.

We will realize a world where the potential of all people is maximized by using the power of technology to connect people around the world. For the vision that Mercari Group aims to achieve, please refer to the Mercari Culture Doc.

Equal Opportunities in the Selection Process

At Mercari, we aim to create a society where individuals can freely create value and have equal opportunities without being limited by their backgrounds. We believe that the concept of "Inclusion & Diversity" is essential for Mercari to fulfill its mission.

In our recruitment activities, we promise to eliminate all forms of discrimination based on age, gender, sexual orientation, race, religion, physical abilities, and other characteristics, and to welcome candidates with diverse backgrounds who resonate with Mercari's mission and values. For more details, please see our I&D statement.
