Message from Our President
Providing services that can satisfy customers; placing importance on
people-to-people contacts.
Seaborne transportation, a primary axis in international logistics of global cargo shipping, is an essential means of transport and indispensable in transporting mineral resources such as crude oil and natural gas; heavy goods such as iron ore and liquid; dry goods; and auto mobiles.Marine vessels, such as ferryboats sailing in island countries like Japan and along peninsulas and areas surrounded by waters, support vital infrastructures for the people by transporting people and daily goods alike.
Steady global distribution of goods is achievable only with the environment in which ships can navigate in safety and in a precise manner.
Ever since the inception of our company, we have been consistently providing our customers with ships equipment/spare parts and repair services of all kinds so that marine vessels around the world can sail safely and surely. Facilities with which all ships are equipped include main engines and auxiliaries; pumps, boilers, refrigeration systems, instrumentation devices; and the number of parts and components exceeds several tens of thousands.Capacity to precisely provide customers with engine components necessary to replace depleted ones requires a broad range of product knowledge and a network of contacts built up over years of hands-on experience. Serving as a mediator between marine equipment makers and shipping/vessel management companies in the world, we set out to provide them with products correctly and quickly as necessary, which is only attainable with exact communications with marine equipment manufacturers on top of the trustworthy relationships with customers overseas.Therefore, it is most important for us to build relations of mutual trust.
Happiness for us is a society where people can mutually show and share their positive impressions and a sense of gratitude, that is to say “love and be loved in return,” “feel delight and be delighted” and “have need and be needed.”We would like to continue to be a company which is faithful to everything and share a sense of “happiness” with all people concerned.Amid the ever-changing social landscape, we are confident that we can buckle down to work with social connections and all our heart and provide customers with a feeling of safety and satisfaction on top of our fine quality services.
