- Shinsho Corporation Shinsho Corporation (TSE: 8075) is a Japan-based trading company primarily engaged in the import, export, and domestic trading of a diverse range of materials and equipment supporting global manufacturing industries. Founded in 1946 and headquartered in Osaka, Japan, with key offices in Tokyo, Nagoya, Kobe, and Fukuoka, the company operates through two main divisions: the Metals Division, encompassing the Iron & Steel Unit (handling steel products, sheets, pipes, and wire rods), Non-Ferrous Unit (trading aluminum coils, plates, extrusions, copper, and other nonferrous metals), and Ferrous & Recycling Materials Unit (dealing in ferrous scraps, secondary ingots, and resource recycling); and the Machinery & Welding Division, including the Machinery Unit (supplying industrial machinery, electronic information equipment, compressors, and FA-related equipment) and Welding Unit (providing welding materials, equipment, and related consumables). It serves key sectors such as automotive, shipbuilding, semiconductors, construction, electronics, aerospace, and energy, with a global footprint spanning 78 bases across Japan, North and Central America (9 companies including subsidiaries in the US and Mexico), East Asia (14 companies primarily in China), ASEAN, India, and the Middle East (19 companies in Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, and India), and Europe (Germany), maintaining close ties as the core trading company of the Kobelco Group. Shinsho Corporation's core offerings emphasize high-value supply chains, leveraging manufacturing expertise to provide integrated solutions from raw materials to finished products, including aluminum processing, precision parts for LCD/solar panels, high-strength bolts, gas sensors, and biomass fuels for decarbonization. The company targets premium customers in resource-intensive industries, promoting "local production for local consumption" through robust logistics, maintenance bases, and DX-enhanced supply chain management to ensure quality, cost, and delivery (QCD) standards worldwide.

The company established a New Business Promotion Department in April 2024 to pursue sustainability-focused ventures through funds, M&As, and collaborations with external partners and start-ups; expanded overseas transactions in automotive/bicycle, ferrous/nonferrous raw materials, and infrastructure; and through its Malaysian subsidiary, signed a Letter of Intent in 2024 with Palmico Sdn Bhd for biomass-related business to enhance palm kernel shell supply and new fuel development.
