Kozo Nakayama

Dear Stakeholders,

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for your continued support.
I am honored to inform you that I was appointed President and Representative Director of Kuroda Group Co., Ltd. at the Ordinary General Meeting of Shareholders and the subsequent meeting of the Board of Directors held in June 2026.

Since its founding in 1945 with the sale of Bakelite sheets as its core business, Kuroda Group has developed into a specialized electronics trading company dealing in electrical materials and electronic components. In response to the diverse needs of customers, the Group further expanded its business by incorporating manufacturing and processing functions. In April 2020, the Group transitioned to a holding company structure with the Company as the parent company, aiming to strengthen its operations through both trading and manufacturing businesses. In December 2024, the Company was listed on the Standard Market of the Tokyo Stock Exchange.

We believe that the long-standing relationships of trust with our customers and other trading partners have been the driving force behind the Group’s sustainable growth and the foundation for creating value beyond simple commercial transactions. Through sincere and fair business activities, we will continue to deepen these relationships of trust and pursue mutual growth together with our trading partners.

To this end, we regard it as our mission to diligently address the challenges faced by our trading partners in each country and region and contribute to their resolution. Going beyond the mere supply of products and materials, we will provide optimal solutions that support our partners in realizing their goals and, through these efforts, create new value for society.

Building on a foundation of trust, the Kuroda Group will continue to pursue sustainable growth and contribute to society by providing added value to its trading partners. We will continue working to meet the expectations of all stakeholders and sincerely appreciate your continued support.
