Message from the President

Forging new paths
with “Wa” (Harmony)
as our compass.
Yuta SakaguchiPresident

SARAMAC’s driving force stems from our history of bold challenges, all rooted in the spirit of “Wa” (Harmony).

For more than four decades, we have charted our course primarily around marine components. Guided by the changing tides of society, we have courageously steered into uncharted waters expanding our overseas network and launching innovative new businesses. Beneath the wake of our ship lies a foundation of solid trust built with our partners and customers.

The “Wa” I believe in is not about simply blending in or conformity. It is a collision of unique personalities—a process of earnest and sometimes fierce friction where sparks fly. I am certain that the unbreakable bonds born from these passionate debates are what true “Wa” is all about.

With this unshakeable trust as our anchor, we find the “courage to change.”

In an era of turbulent change, past successes are merely obsolete charts. Yet, we have a crew ready to face the rough seas together. With this bond as our ultimate strength, we set sail toward uncharted businesses and an exploratory future. Driven by our desire for the growth and happiness of all stakeholders, and our commitment to social contribution, we will keep evolving.
