History of Value Creation

History of SIIX

The company was founded on July 1, 1992, when major ink-maker Sakata Inx Corporation's Overseas Business Department, in charge of trading, became independent. We marked the 30th anniversary in 2022. As a "global business organizer" that connects various needs and seeds in the world, we have created and

offered different types of new value without being bound by industry or eld boundaries. The company has the willingness to take on new challenges under the slogan of "Make an !mpact," as well as to work closely with all stakeholders under the spirit of "We care." We will thus respond swiftly to our customers' needs.

From 1957

Commenced trading activities overseas

The foundation of the company traces back to when an export section was created in the trading division of Sakata Shokai Co., Ltd (currently Sakata Inx Corporation), the ink-maker that was the company's predecessor, and exports of electronic components to the Philippines began.
