COMPANY OVERVIEW

In the early twentieth century, Junpei Hayashida Incorporated began its business as a lumber wholesaler, but with the markets changing, it diverged its business to various forms. Following being publicly incorporated, the company`s divergences included real estate and the trading of various materials used for the construction of homes primarily leased to Toyota employees in the United States of America. J. Hayashida USA Inc. was established in the 1963s and this marked the company’s first initiative in further establishing its overseas business affairs, particularly in the states of Kentucky and West Virgina. Within the next two years, Hayashida International Inc. was created and Pegasus Investment Inc. was formed. The uniqueness of the Hayashida Group is within the management leading both an inclusive environment and the "Change for the Best" principle where operations continue to be adapted to fit in with changing demands.

INTRODUCTION

Hayashida Group began in 1931 when its founder, Junpei Hayashida, established Hayashida Junpei Shouten. In 1951, the company was reorganized as a stockholding corporation that became the core of Hayashida Group, and J. Hayashida Inc. was born. Hayashida Lumber Inc. was founded in the same year, and contributed through its lumber work to Japan`s period of high-level growth. Later, in late 60th to 70th, Hayashida group advanced into the warehouse rental industry, and in 1972 a real estate management company, Hankai Corporation, fulfilled the need in managing Hayashida Group’s real estate. In 1988, as a first step towards business development in America, the company established J. Hayashida USA Inc. overseas, where it expanded its foreign operations 　 Afterwards, the company established Hayashida International Inc. in Kentucky in 1990, and Pegasus Investment Inc. in West Virginia in 1999. Making the most of the practical knowledge gained through its residential leasing operations in the US, the company started a housing import department in 1998. At present, Hayashida Group is expanding on six departments: Lumber, Building Materials, Housing, Travel, Overseas, and Warehouse Leasing & Insurance Departments.
