It
has become the season to smell the aroma of fragrant olives.
Fall
has really come, and also October is the start of our new
business period.
The sales
amount in 50th business term (at the end of Sep.) reached to JPY
5.729 Billion.
The
plan was set at JPY 5.7 Billion, so we had exceeded the target to around
5%.
Also
the profit cleared that of last term, so this shows both growth
of earnings and profit.
The
increase on the sales revenue are not triggered by the price
adjustment due to the
steel
and other material cost increased.
I
believe this is the result of all employees' efforts and cooperations
besides a benefit
from
a good world market.
From
the bottom of my heart, I wish to thank sincerely each and everyone.
I'm
very proud of our excellent employees.
From
October we aim further growth with a new company name, with
a new policy and
with
a new business plan.
Each
department may have very difficult tasks ahead but each
manager has their own
unique
strategy towards a new business period.
The
Sales department shall further expand market share in construction
machinery field.
Especially the
expansion of market share in Euro and US are indispensable.
In
the Process Filters field, it is essentially needed to establish
a new business model.
To
assist our Sales department we will build Customer Support Center in
Euro and US
in
addition to Tokyo CS Center.
As
soon as possible we wish “Global Developement with
Competition and Cooperation”
Also
it is important to develop environment-friendly filters.
Filters
are disposed after use, therefore it is necessary to consider the
environment
measures
from a development stage.
From
a view point of risk management such as for earthquakes, tsunami,
typhoons,
Saga
factory should have competitiveness same as our oversea
factories.
We
need more automaton, succession of excellent skills, improvement
of core technology...
Introduction
of APQP(Advanced Product Quality Planning and control plan) and PPAP
(Production
Parts Planning Approval Process) are indispensable.
General
Affairs and Accounting department shall upgrade our internal management
systems.
The
change of company name is a symbol of revamping.
We
shall bear the pain of this revamping for our future
growth.
This new
business plan are fulled with the spirit and enthusiasm of each manager.
I
wish to request further supports and cooperations from all
concerned.
Thank
you for your continued patronage to Yamashin Filters.
