Japan Machinery was founded in 1959. For the fast-paced development Japanese industry this was a time of critical need for foreign technologies.
Our focal point was originally aimed at the supply of high-technology products. The careful selection of vendors able to meet customer requirements laid down the foundation for our successful operation.
Soon after the Tokyo main office was established, Japan Machinery opened branch offices in Osaka (1959) and Nagoya (1960).
As time developed, the Japanese economic miracle resulted in more and more Japanese companies able to produce high-quality goods and technologies suitable for the world market. In 1972, Japan Machinery Company opened an Export Department.
In subsequent years, the company continued its business expansion to cover all major industrial cities in Japan, and continually engaged with new suppliers; however, Japan Machinery Company went beyond simple trade operations. The foundation of a technical office enabled the company to provide in-depth technical and systems support, quality control examinations, calibration tests, user assistance and repairs at a reputable level. The steady progression in management systems led to ISO 9001 (2002) and ISO 14001 (2011) certification, and in 2009 the SAP ERP system was implemented.
Japan Machinery Company currently imports superior products from more than 500 companies worldwide, and distributes through 14 branch offices located in all economically important areas of Japan. The Export Department represents “made in Japan” products in over 40 countries. A new «JMC building» constructed in 2012 provided an opportunity to achieve up-to-date and high-quality logistics support. The building includes a display area of high interest equipment for customer viewing and training.
Japan Machinery takes pride in its multinational team of highly-skilled professionals, whose continuity and stability have increased and developed company traditions, relations and expertise for over half century. Not willing to rest upon its accomplishments, the company team has the confidence and optimism to face fast-paced world’s present-day challenges.
