Message from Top Management


President & CEO, Yoshihiro Onishi

Our aim is to be a corporate group that contributes to society through our products and the technologies that provide added value to those products. This philosophy has remained unchanged since our company was founded, and we have continuously responded to the needs of society as we expanded the scope of our business.


The three principal business segments of our company are Aircraft, which we took over from the forerunner of our company and carry on to this day, and Special Purpose Truck and Industrial Machinery, where we developed unique business domains based on our aircraft technologies. The mutual support provided by these business segments allows us to thrive in each of the various market environments.


Since infrastructure-related products account for most of our Group’s business, the shrinking of domestic demand and the shift of production overseas recently necessitated management making a major change in direction to global markets. The number of overseas subsidiaries has grown and these companies now account for more than half of the companies in our Group. An ideal environment has now been created that will allow us to put serious effort into overseas expansion.


On the other hand, in order for our Group, which manages a wide range of businesses, to continue to grow, we should not undertake the uniform distribution of management resources to all of the business segments. What we must do is ascertain what fields have potential for growth, set a specific period of time, and concentrate our efforts on producing concrete results. In order to promote demand in both domestic and overseas markets, we must concentrate the management resources required on our principal products to enhance their competitiveness, and ensure that these efforts lead to results. These are the very foundations of management, and it is this art of management that shines a bright light on our future.


We will continue our endeavors to ensure that we always move steadily forward with the aim of becoming a corporate group capable of realizing our brand statement “ Brighten Your Future.” Accordingly, we would be grateful for your continued support and cooperation.
