"We are eager to open our doors and export to companies all over the world."
Yoshihiro Kawakami, President, Johoku Industrial Co., Ltd.
Since its foundation in 1918, Johoku Industrial has been one the most trusted manufacturing partners for Japan's motorcycle and wider automotive industry. Of the company's production volume, 70% is for motorcycles - its main products being cast wheels and spoke wheels among others - with the remaining 30% for automobiles, where an increasing proportion of this is focused on technologies considered the future of mobility, including parts for the fuel cell vehicle (FCV) and electric vehicle (EV) markets.
"Our motorcycle production volume is three times smaller than it was 20 years ago," says Yoshihiro Kawakami, President of Johoku Industrial. "But our manufacturing costs have remained the same or less thanks to the strengths of our value production kaizen [continuous business improvement] and manufacturing philosophy."
