At the time of its opening, Kumamoto Prima's business consisted largely of fresh meat, with some ham and sausage business in parallel, but around 1995 the company expanded into the prepared foods business with a focus on processed foods.
While the company's business performance was strong, it was looking for something to contribute to the local community as a company, and with an introduction from the local public employment security office, it started employing people with disabilities.
The company currently employs six people with disabilities, mainly at the ham and sausage production site. They range in age from 20 to 59, and two of them have been working there since then (15 years ago) and are still working there today.

In recent years, the company has been actively participating in consultation services for people with disabilities on issues related to the workplace and daily life in cooperation and support from local schools for the disabled and employment and support centers to help create a good working environment for people with disabilities.
