The Automotive Division exports automobiles and automotive parts of the Toyota Group, including passenger cars of Toyota Motor Corporation and Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. and trucks of Hino Motors, Ltd., respectively manufactured in Japan by the Toyota Group, to about 150 countries worldwide and also engages in retail business overseas.

We are currently bolstering efforts into developing our overseas retail business. With Japanese automobile manufacturers shifting their development and production structures overseas as they globalize their operations, Toyota Tsusho is fortifying its retail business with firm roots in local markets in addition to undertaking its export-centered businesses. We presently operate retail bases in more than 170 locations worldwide and intend to further bolster this structure in the future.

Toyota Tsusho provides automobile distributors in each country with comprehensive support, covering unified services and integrating sales, spare parts and service, as well as sales and marketing guidance. As part of this comprehensive support, we also help nurture technical service staff, supply genuine and general-use parts and accessories, and offer management support that includes investments and financing.

Through close collaboration with our bases in each country, we strive for the timely acquisition of such marketing information as market trends and user preferences as well as risk information. We then use this information as feedback to plan and develop overseas production and marketing strategies for automotive and related manufacturers. In this manner, we fully utilize our information capabilities unique to a trading company.
