This merger intends not only to encompass the manufacturing of small- to medium-sized components by combining both companies’ strengths, but also to strengthen its position as a unit supplier by expanding business into the manufacturing of high-precision unit components.
By the end of last year, the two companies aggregated their respective manufacturing plants (excluding the Negata Factory) and headquarters functions at Yamaha Motor's Morimachi Factory in Morimachi (Shūchi, Shizuoka, Japan), strengthening cooperation in manufacturing technology and taking initiatives to expand business through integrated manufacturing from casting to processing and assembly.
