Message from the Management
As the owners of HOTAI DEVELOPMENT Co., Ltd., we deeply understand that corporate responsibility extends beyond revenue growth and market expansion. It also encompasses long-term commitments to environmental protection (E), social development (S), and corporate governance (G). Since its founding in 1963, HOTAI DEVELOPMENT has consistently upheld the belief of "changing before we are exhausted, striving for excellence, and having to change." Through continuous innovation and transformation, we have grown from a humble beginning in stainless steel tableware to a leading company in Taiwan's air conditioning industry and the exclusive distributor of Daikin air conditioners in Taiwan.
Facing the global trend of sustainable development and the high expectations of our stakeholders, we are actively deepening our ESG strategy, demonstrating our commitment and actions across the board, from corporate governance and green operations to social engagement. In 2024, we completed our greenhouse gas inventory in accordance with ISO 14064-1 and obtained third-party verification, supporting our 2050 vision of net-zero carbon emissions with concrete actions. We are also establishing a comprehensive education and training system and a diverse career advancement mechanism, striving to create a happy workplace and enhance the competitiveness of our talent and corporate cohesion.
At the same time, in terms of corporate governance, we also adhere to the "safety, profit, and development" advocated by the founder of Hotai Group, Huang Liehuo; and the belief and principles of "no best, only better" advocated by President Su Yanhui. We strengthen the functions of the Board of Directors, attach importance to information transparency, risk control and honest business operations, and fully implement internal audits and regulatory compliance to ensure that interactions with all stakeholders are based on trust and professionalism.
This is the first ESG report issued by HOTAI DEVELOPMENT, marking a significant milestone on our journey toward sustainable governance. Going forward, we will continue to uphold a professional, service-oriented, and innovative business philosophy, working collaboratively with all colleagues and stakeholders to advance our corporate vision of "a better life and a harmoniously society," and together create a sustainable future.
We sincerely invite everyone to continue to pay attention and provide guidance. Let us embark on the journey towards sustainability together, taking one step at a time and steadily fulfilling our commitment to society and the environment.
