Sales Subsidiary to be Established in São Paulo, Brazil

Announced: May 11, 2010
Published: May 11, 2010

Tokyo, Japan — Having established TOYO INK BRASIL LTDA. as a sales subsidiary dealing primarily in printing inks in São Paulo, Brazil, Toyo Ink Mfg. Co. Ltd. (President & CEO: Kunio Sakuma, Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo) will be starting business via its new company in May 2010.

[Purpose of the New Company]
The Toyo Ink Group has set out a vision aimed at becoming “a corporate group evolving into a globally useful specialty chemical manufacturer” as part of its New Vision SCC2017, the Group’s current long-term plan, and supplies users the world over with printing inks and other printing materials with an emphasis on the environment and process innovation with the objective of evolving into an internationally respected, science-oriented corporate group.
Whereas the majority of the Toyo Ink Group’s sales in Brazil and other Latin American countries have previously involved exports via subsidiaries based in the US, the Group has now decided to establish a local sales subsidiary in Brazil in order to cater to the growing market.
The Group considers Brazil, its neighboring countries and the surrounding area to be a key growth market and intends to gradually expand the range of products offered in Latin America, using this new company as a central hub to ensure steady supplies of Toyo Ink products.
