Message from the President
Rasa Corporation is a specialized trading company that supplies firms in various industries with resources, metallic materials, industrial machinery, construction equipment, and other products and have continued to support their development. We offer customers innovative proposals supported by long and rich expertise, skills and technologies in specialized fields. We have been also getting customers’ reliance through providing them our extensive maintenance and service operations, and have established long-term relationships with them.
Leveraging our capabilities has enabled us to offer products that have high market share in many categories. For example, Rasa Corporation ranks first class in zircon sand in the mineral resource sector, slurry pumps in the industrial machinery sector and blast furnance slag granulation plant which uses our proprietary technology, in the environmental equipment sector.
We acquired Izumi Co., Ltd, which has a history of over 70 years as a trading company specializing in synthetic resins, oils and fats, and chemicals, as a subsidiary in 2012（April 2024 Absorption-type merger）. In December 2014, we expanded our business domain by acquiring Asahitech Co., Ltd., a company mainly engaged in design, construction, and maintenance work for plants and related facilities in various fields, including petroleum refining and petrochemical plants. Furthermore, In February 2015, we promoted the effective utilization of real estate owned by the Rasa Corporation Group through the establishment of Rasa Real Estate Co., Ltd. Through these initiatives, in addition to our existing “Resources and Metallic Materials Business,” “Industrial and Construction Machineries Business,” and “Environmental Equipments Business,” we have added “Chemical Business,” “Corporate Real Estate Business,” and “Industrial Plants and Equipment Business,” we have established a structure to build partnerships in more diverse ways and contribute to our clients' business growth.
The Rasa Group launched its new medium-term management plan "Step Forward: Rasa 2027 – Moving on to the Next Stage of Growth –," from FY2025 (ending March 2026) and will go beyond achieving stable growth for existing business to step forward to a new stage of growth over the next three years based on the solid management foundation we built during our previous medium-term management plan.
This medium-term management plan serves as a period for us to step forward to a new stage of growth, positioning initiatives for new territories and areas of growth as our top priority while delving deeper into existing areas in an effort to achieve stable growth for existing businesses to serve as the foundation for this new growth stage. We will also promote sustainability management aimed at strengthening governance, environmental conservation, and revitalizing the organization and our human resources.
We ask for your continued guidance and encouragement.
We sincerely welcome your kind and continued supports and patronage.
