OUR HISTORY

We are short of turning 100,
spanning over 3 generations!

Our first generation originated from Iyo in Shikoku and laid the foundation with his ambitions, our second generation pioneered the incorporation of IT, our third generation led the company to globalization- that is how YOSHU came into existence and this is how we will continue to grow.
We have come this far, striving to be of use to our customers as well as for the happiness of all our employees.
We aspire to be a necessary existence on the global field even 100 or 200 years into the future.
