The company operates globally, with key facilities and subsidiaries in Asia, Europe, the Americas and the Middle East, serving industries such as agriculture, automotive, electronics, construction, pharmaceuticals and energy. It also provides ancillary services including electric power and steam supply, chemical plant design and construction, transportation, warehousing and environmental analysis. In recent developments, Sumitomo Chemical announced a 400 billion yen investment plan in March 2025 under its medium-term management strategy 'Leap Beyond - Return to Growth Track,' targeting growth in agrochemicals, semiconductors and display technologies, with over 220 billion yen allocated to research and development aiming for core operating income of 200 billion yen by fiscal 2028. The company fully acquired French crop protection firm Philagro Holding S.A. and Spanish firm Kenogard S.A. in early 2025 to expand its European crop protection business, integrating operations with its subsidiary Sumitomo Chemical Agro Europe S.A.S. and targeting more than doubled sales by 2030. Additional strategic moves include a September 2025 memorandum of understanding with Mitsui Chemicals and Idemitsu Kosan to integrate its polypropylene and LLDPE businesses into Prime Polymer; an agreement in November 2025 to acquire a Taiwanese semiconductor process chemicals company for bases in Taiwan and the U.S.; plans to make Tanaka Chemical Corporation a wholly-owned subsidiary via share exchange in October 2025; establishment of RACTHERA Co., Ltd. joint venture with Sumitomo Pharma in February 2025 for regenerative medicine research; and restructuring of its U.S. agro & life solutions group companies plus lithium-ion battery separator business in late 2025.
