Mr. President , Mr. Tagiri & Me
According to our President Mr. Toru Oshima“New York AHR EXPO was defeated by the power of Chinese company”those mean Chinese companies are getting strong to build up their reputation around international market in short period. Therefore, we have to consider how to manage our world appreciated quality products in suitable cost; it’s time to be serious on foreign business strategy.
