Around 1980, when cosmetics produced with chemical and artificial ingredients were the order of the day, DHC was among the first companies to explore the healing powers and skin compatibility of natural ingredients. These efforts led to the development of DHC Olive Virgin Oil, a beauty essence made of 100% natural ingredients.

In the field of health foods, DHC became the leader in mail-order sales a mere seven years after entering the industry, an achievement we attribute to our approach of repeatedly challenging industry convention and delivering excellent value at reasonable prices. The major driving forces behind DHC's continued growth include a product lineup based on innovative ideas and exacting quality control.
