Message from President
“We ask ourselves what we can do for social action.”
” To do a good job and respond to needs customers” has been our corporate pholosophy – identity of URAKAWA since foundation.
With our workers, we think about the real needs of customers, what we can do and how to do it day by day, by watching products on shop-floor.
Nowadays we hear the words ” CSR(corporate social responsibility) ” We believe ” Doing a good job by ourself ” can contribute to our society, industry, and eventually ourself. Keeping that in mind,we are making efforts to create the bright future of company where everyone can work with pride.
Thank you for your continued patronage and support.
