Involvement ranges from clothing to industrial materials, exercising a synergizing effect

This company’s area of business ranges extensively, from textile manufacturing of clothing materials to industrial materials and raw materials, creating a synergy effect, and expanding the business. Many clients are simultaneously opening diversified businesses in China, and the ability to provide unique, colorful solutions is this company’s forte.

At the beginning, the company’s main business was to apply the Chinese “global factory” effect to Japanese businesses, but in recent years, as the Chinese market has grown, the expansion of domestic sales has become a pressing topic. In addition, though the company’s traditional business remains centered around clothing materials, its industrial materials sales today are over half of the company’s total.

The best-selling industrial materials are airbag fabrics, car seats, and other automotive materials. Our clients not only include Japanese car factories, but also increasingly relationships with local manufacturing firms. Against the backdrop of a gradually expanding Chinese car market, it will be well worth seeing the company’s future development in this area.

In terms of clothing materials, our business encompasses both upstream and downstream industries, from raw materials to fabrics and sewing, and it uses this as a tool to continually expand its business despite the clothing market downturn. Fabrics are not only raw materials for Teijin; cloth from the group’s companies such as Nantong Teijin, have opened up the market and they have begun supplying to large local clients as well. Through choosing and concentrating advantageous resources, our products will provide a unified production service for large-scale local brands.

In addition, we highly value the operating strategy of localizing human resources. Currently, director-level employees are almost entirely natives of the local countries, and from now on we intend to achieve localization at the department head and deputy department level as well. This company views everybody as being the same regardless of nationality, aligning treatment of employees with ability, and, we hope, improving work performance as a result.
