Daido Corporation origins trace back to Meisei Trade Co., Ltd., established in August 1949, exporting machine and metal-processed products. With the support of our stakeholders, we have contributed to the development of industries both domestically and internationally for over 75 years.
During this long history, the role of trading companies have evolved. To enhance our value, we have expanded our global footprint to the United States, Taiwan, China, Germany, and Vietnam to meet the diverse needs of our customers. Building on these achievements, our core business in recent years has centered on providing globally competitive and value-added mobility components and power transmission equipment, primarily chains, produced in Japan to customers worldwide. We develop and import innovative products tailored to customer needs, focusing on cost-competitive tools produced in Taiwan, China, and Vietnam.
In 2017, an inspection warehouse was established in Shanghai China, enabling us to perform 100% in-house inspections and consolidate shipments. In 2023, we strengthened our global supply system by establishing a local subsidiary in Vietnam, ensuring a reliable and stable supply of products for our customers.
Regarding our mobility business, we leverage our longstanding experience and reputation as a Tier 1 supplier in North America and Europe. By harnessing the collective strength of our group, we aim to become a leading global supplier.
Our new medium-term plan was launched in October 2024. This plan will drive sales with a focus on "speed," leveraging the strengths of our global network and the unique characteristics of each location. We will strengthen our group management and expand our two core pillars: "tools" and the mobility business.
Daido Corporation will continue to enhance the "global network" and "specialized product and services" that has differentiated us over the years. We remain committed to supporting the prosperity and growth of our stakeholders worldwide and contributing to the development of society.
