| On April 1, 2004, we marked our first step as
a machinery trading company of the Sojitz Group,
following the integration of five subsidiaries of
the companies formerly known as Nichimen Corporation
and Nissho Iwai Corporation. With our advent as
the largest land-based machinery trading company
of a general trading company, we will utilize the
strengthened business resources, and will strive
for continued growth as a more worthwhile organization.
A worthwhile machinery trading company - we believe
that the key to realizing this lies within the
words 'customer satisfaction' . The ability to
provide products and services that are more pleasing
to customers more is the very thing that is required
of us.
For instance, our business partners are small
to medium-sized, domestic and overseas companies
who are technologically excellent at 'something'.
We distribute the products of such companies to
markets through our network, or as a partner we
jointly promote new business model development
and business creation. Further, we propose total
solutions that anticipate customer needs by combining
our existing network and products. Through such
functions, we desire to become an entity that
produces value for both the manufacturers and
users of products.
In order to fulfill our mission of the thorough
pursuance of 'customer satisfaction', through
action rather than by words alone, we promise
that we will continue to remain a 'vibrant machinery
company' that promptly serves market needs and
bravely challenges the changes in the market environment. |
