Starting as an import trading company in 1927, we have been developing our business with many overseas suppliers and domestic customers over the years. Through our services of connecting the two together, Higuchi has become the well trusted "Japan distribution channel" for suppliers, and the "dependable vendor" who provides a stable supply of the latest high-valued overseas products to customers. Today, we conduct not only importing but also exporting businesses, trilateral trades, and overseas business investments as well. We have also expanded to local subsidiaries in the United States and China, to which we are able to effectively network overseas. Higuchi believes in the criticalness of providing a stable supply to customers, and we also place the highest priority on the coexistence with suppliers, to whom we can mutually develop together in a long-term perspective. Your support and consideration to our corporate philosophy would be much appreciated.
