From the CEO
Aspiring to Serve Society with Technologies That Move Materials

Daifuku regards material handling systems and equipment as a key part of the social infrastructure, supporting industry, logistics and trade.
Our management philosophy includes our aspiration to "contribute to the development of industry by supplying optimal material handling systems to a global market." We have expanded our business by continually developing technologies to meet customer demands. We are not merely a manufacturer but also a systems integrator. We develop material handling solutions that optimize material movement, provide service to customers after a system has been installed, and offer equipment retrofits. In doing so, we maintain long-term relationships with a considerable number of customers.
Over 70 years after our founding, we now provide a broad array of logistics systems for food, pharmaceutical, electronics, automotive and other manufacturing sectors producing a vast array of products essential to everyday life. We also offer material handling systems that help streamline distribution and the delivery of these products to customers. Our solutions have earned accolades from numerous enterprises worldwide.
Today, we have offices in 20 countries and regions around the globe. To ensure consistently high levels of quality in our products worldwide, we are committed to transferring our manufacturing expertise and training global staff. We aim to continue providing material handling systems and equipment that contribute to material movement in manufacturing and distribution that meets the needs of people around the world.
Thanks to the support of our stakeholders, we are now regarded as one of the leading players in the material handling sector. Let me take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation to all stakeholders for their support over many years.
We hope that we can continue to count on your support and guidance as we expand our activities.
