Since 1924 we have established a relationship with our customers based on trust as we endeavor to contribute to the progress of manufacturing in Japan from the standpoint of a machinery tools trading company. However, recent changes in the business environment such as globalization, advances in IT (information technology) and environmental responsiveness, have resulted in a need for a major overhaul in the way the manufacturing industry operates. There is now an urgent need to restructure management and production systems.

We are also keenly aware of the need to provide new support services that meet these changes along with our mission of distribution that supports existing manufacturing. It is our desire that Japan continues to maintain its leadership as a manufacturing nation in the 21st century and progresses alongside users and manufacturers. We are thus determined to put forth the greatest effort possible to realize this desire.

It is our sincere intention to serve you by offering the world's top-level machinery, tools, systems and associated software in addition to consulting advice on improvement of production systems, IT applications, environmental responsiveness and overseas information. We will continue to provide all of these while reaffirming our mission as a trading company. We thank you for your continued support and patronage.
