Branch Network

Pursuing development of bases domestically and overseas after ascertaining effectiveness, to create a strong "Kanamoto network."

[Domestic branch strategy]

Kanamoto's fundamental branch strategy is to develop bases by emphasizing demand-based needs, including disaster recovery works and large-scale projects in various regions, while placing branch development in the Tokyo Metropolitan Area, where both public and private sector demand is concentrated, and in other major urban centers where there remains room for growth, at the center of its expansion strategy.
Kanamoto will undertake further enhancement of its branch network by continuing to develop branches whose future effectiveness can be ascertained.

[Overseas branch formation]

Seven years have passed since Kanamoto first began developing operations in foreign countries, and in each country we are already achieving commensurate results. To serve the vigorous local demand driven by infrastructure construction in China, which is being undertaken at a rapid pace, we are not only developing bases but also expanding our construction equipment maintenance and rental locations. A number of large-scale infrastructure construction project plans are also moving forward in Hong Kong, and when efforts such as our successful indirect entry to these large-scale projects through KANAMOTO (HK) CO., LTD. is taken into account, the development of Kanamoto's business in China has accelerated.
In Singapore where we have established Kanamoto & JP Nelson Equipment (S) PTE. Ltd., an overseas affiliate, a succession of large-scale projects including subways and expressways has been ordered in that country, and we anticipate demand for specialized equipment for engineering works such as ground improvement and the shield tunneling method, sectors in which the Kanamoto Group possesses unique expertise.
In addition to these activities, Kanamoto is developing construction equipment rentals in Vietnam, Algeria, UAE and the Pacific rim region, broadening both its sales areas and business areas one by one. This effort to expand our overseas operations centered on the giant market in China and the remarkably developing ASEAN countries is one of the Kanamoto Group's most important measures. Kanamoto will continue to lay a solid foundation for its push into overseas markets in the future.
