Chairman Speech

In 2008, the world economy experienced historical financial crisis. With contraction, closedown or downsizing happened in factories and more people got unemployed, many developed countries had a tough year and the recovery is still slow. Under such kind of global environment, China economy showed vigorous recovering with the interference of government policies after months. The main reason is the push by the automobile industry and the contribution from the modernization of steel industry relating to infrastructures in recent years, such as expressways, railways and high-rise buildings.

Kyokuto Trading (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., as a branch company wholly invested by Japanese professional trading company, Kyokuto Boeki Kaisha, Ltd., was founded in Shanghai in 1997 when KBK was 50 years old. Inheriting the parent company’s creed of valuing personnel, technology and confidence, we provide mechanical equipment and raw materials, introduce advanced technologies and promote technical cooperation not only for Japanese enterprises, but also for European and American companies and also Asian companies represented by China companies, and what’s more, assist the Sino-Japan joint ventures invested by Kyokuto Boeki Kaisha, Ltd. in various fields in China. We will continue to meet the demand of customers and partners, and march towards those fields that are hard for other large trading companies to set foot in and adapt.

Especially for the above-mentioned automobile industry, steel industry and digital technology industry, we’ll work on “Essential technology for essential enterprise”, and try to be the best partner. We also look forward to your kind guidance and encouragement.
