Hanwa Co., Ltd.

Message from the Representatives

President
Yoichi Nakagawa

We have consistently responded to market changes with flexible thinking and action as an independent trading company, continuing to new challenges. Since our founding, we have adhered to the principle of being “distribution specialist,” leveraging our high level of expertise and extensive global network to meet diverse needs across a wide range of industries, with steel at the core.

Under our “Medium-Term Business Plan 2025, Run up to HANWA 2030,” we are prioritizing investments in growth areas such as high-value-added processing, environmentally friendly products, local production for local consumption overseas, and secondary battery-related businesses, aiming to achieve both profitability and capital efficiency.

Our people are the source of our competitiveness. Through practical human resource development, we enhance expertise and decision-making capabilities while fostering a culture where diverse human resource can thrive. At the same time, we are strengthening our management foundation through governance reforms and deeper risk management, ensuring sustainable growth in a rapidly changing operating environment. As a business partner, we work alongside our customers to address challenges and create a trading and distribution model that delivers real value.

Looking ahead to 2030, we aim to transform from a steel trading company into a “supply chain creation company.” By building supply chains that connect every “want,” we will deliver solutions to customer challenges and create social value.
I hope that you will have high hopes for the future of Hanwa and kindly ask for your continued support.
