    November 9, 2017 News Release Company name: Kumagai Gumi Co., Ltd. Representative: Yasushi Higuchi, President (Stock code: 1861, TSE, First Section) Contact: Chihiro Nosaka General Manager, Accounting Dept., Administrative Div. (Tel.: 81-3-3235-8606 Company name: Sumitomo Forestry Co., Ltd. Representative: Akira Ichikawa, President (Stock code: 1911, TSE, First Section) Contact: Yuichiro Ono General Manager, Corporate Communications Dept. (Tel.: 81-3-3214-2270) Notice of Capital and Business Alliance between Sumitomo Forestry Co., Ltd. and Kumagai Gumi Co., Ltd. Sumitomo Forestry Co., Ltd. (hereafter, “Sumitomo Forestry”) and Kumagai Gumi Co., Ltd. (hereafter, “Kumagai Gumi”) concluded an agreement concerning a capital and business alliance (hereafter, “the Alliance”) today. The two companies intend to grow together as long term strategic partners and increase corporate value based on a good relationship involving mutual respect for independence and autonomy in management and a spirit of equality. 1. Purpose of the Alliance: Entry into New Business Areas and Creation of New Markets The residential housing and construction markets in Japan are projected to reach a contracted equilibrium at a smaller market size as the population declines over the medium to long-term. Recognizing the need for initiatives aimed at sustainable growth amid the changing business environment, the two companies are aiming to build new, independent positions that exceed the boundaries of their existing businesses. They have considered a collaborative structure for initiatives such as creating new markets, development of high value-added technology, and business expansion overseas. Sumitomo Forestry, which is the top brand in the timber and building materials business and the wooden custom- built detached housing business, recognizes the need for a general contracting function in pursuing a global strategy that includes the real estate development business in addition to strengthening Sumitomo Forestry’s business in the non-housing sector in Japan.

Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/00m7d34g Authors Lincoln, James R. Shimotani, Masahiro Publication Date 2009-09-24 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California WHITHER THE KEIRETSU, JAPAN’S BUSINESS NETWORKS? How were they structured? What did they do? Why are they gone? James R. Lincoln Walter A. Haas School of Business University of California, Berkeley Berkeley, CA 94720 USA ([email protected]) Masahiro Shimotani Faculty of Economics Fukui Prefectural University Fukui City, Japan ([email protected]) 1 INTRODUCTION The title of this volume and the papers that fill it concern business “groups,” a term suggesting an identifiable collection of actors (here, firms) within a clear-cut boundary. The Japanese keiretsu have been described in similar terms, yet compared to business groups in other countries the postwar keiretsu warrant the “group” label least. The prewar progenitor of the keiretsu, the zaibatsu, however, could fairly be described as groups, and, in their relatively sharp boundaries, hierarchical structure, family control, and close ties to the state were structurally similar to business groups elsewhere in the world. With the break-up by the U. S. Occupation of the largest member firms, the purging of their executives, and the outlawing of the holding company structure that held them together, the zaibatsu were transformed into quite different business entities, what we and other literature call “network forms” of organization (Podolny and Page, 1998; Miyajima, 1994).
