Charting our Growth

Established as Daiwabo

1941

Reorganized into Daiwabo Holdings

2009

Daiwabo was established in 1941 through the merger of four fiber and textile companies.
Although the business environment continued to change dramatically since the foundation of the company, we have been able to expand our business and achieve stable earnings by constantly implementing business reforms and growth strategies based on new ideas.

 

In 1949, the Shinji Factory of Daiwabo was spun off into a spinning machinery manufacturer, which became the foundation of the present industrial machinery business.
In 1982, we entered the IT business by utilizing our own system development know-how.
This business grew rapidly with the spread of PCs and expanded into our mainstay IT infrastructure distribution business.

 

After successfully spinning off each business into financially-independent companies and increasing their individual expertise, in 2009, we embarked on a new stage as Daiwabo Holdings.
We aim to further develop and contribute to society through our collective capabilities.
