[Strength of products/technologies]
This product features integrated sorting, which is its greatest strength. We are a unique company and the only one in Japan to provide a one-stop system for sorting crops, such as potatoes. Calbee, Inc. trusts us, and we deliver our equipment for sorting potatoes that minimizes bruising to maintain the quality of the end product (potato chips).

[Representative's message]
Up until now, we have been producing farming equipment and agricultural machinery in response to requests from May Queen farmers in the Taisho district of Obihiro City where our company is located. We have then promoted sales of those products to potato farmers in Hokkaido. We are principally a community-based company, however we would like to actively meet the needs of any potential customer in Japan. We think that there is certainly a market overseas since finding out that our products have been brought in foreign countries through indirect routes. I would like to actively handle overseas business development to ensure our products get to places where they are needed. 

[Company structure for market development/overseas expansion]
There are cases where our representative visits overseas agricultural machinery exhibitions, or makes overseas inspections as an advisor on overseas agricultural conditions upon request, although this is not done as an in-house operation. We are ready to move matters forward by responding to similar cases with our main representatives. 



[Market share/Ranking]
We are proud to have almost 100% of market shares in Hokkaido potato farmers.
