Komatsu Ltd.
(株式会社小松製作所, Kabushiki-gaisha Komatsu Seisakusho) or
Komatsu
(コマツ) (TYO: 6301) is a Japanese multinational corporation that produces construction, mining, forestry and military equipment, as well as diesel engines and industrial equipment such as presses, lasers and thermoelectric generators. The headquarters is located in Minato, Tokyo, Japan. The corporation was named after the city of Komatsu, Ishikawa Prefecture, where the company was founded in 1921. Worldwide, the Komatsu group includes Komatsu Ltd. and 258 other companies (215 consolidated subsidiaries and 42 equity accounted companies).
Komatsu is the world's second largest manufacturer of construction equipment and mining equipment after Caterpillar. However, in some regions (Japan, China) Komatsu has a larger share than Caterpillar. It has manufacturing plants in Japan, Asia, America and Europe.
The company was named after Komatsu city in Ishikawa Prefecture. The word ko-matsu
means "small pine tree" (小松) in Japanese.

Birth of a brand
It all started in 1894, when Meitaro Takeuchi began working in a copper mine and founded.
The next step in the history of the Komatsu empire was the opening in 1917 of a small main activity which was the production of machines and equipment for the coal and mining industries. The new company received its name from a small town in western Japan, which became its place of residence for many years, until 1951, when Komatsu's head office moved to Tokyo. The successful work and dynamic development of Komatsu Iron Works made it possible to separate the company into a separate independent enterprise - Komatsu Ltd - which happened on May 13, 1921 - this date is considered the birthday of Komatsu. In 1924, the first Japanese press machine was produced, and a short time later, Komatsu Ltd reached a size that allowed it to begin manufacturing construction equipment. In 1931, the first agricultural tractor, the G25, was manufactured, followed by its more powerful counterpart, the G40.
The next stage in the company's development was the production of Komatsu road construction equipment - in 1943 the Komatsu Model-1 soil leveling machine was produced, and in 1947 the first D50 bulldozer was produced, and in 1952 the production of GD37 motor graders began.
1953 was marked by the opening of the company's first production base in Tochiga, specializing in the production of forklifts, as well as the release of the first Komatsu dump truck, the 15-ton HD150. In 1955, production of bucket (front-end) wheel loaders began. Already in 1968, the first Komatsu excavator was produced, and in 1969 an amphibious bulldozer was developed.
Subsequently, the range of equipment was constantly improved. More and more new modifications of equipment were developed and put into production to meet the growing needs of consumers and the level of technology development.
(Komatsu's production also developed in other areas - in particular, in 1941, the production of large-sized hydraulic presses began; since 1948, Komatsu has been producing its own diesel engines; in 1953, it produces the first unit of special (armored) equipment; in 1954, it launches the first precision workshop casting, 1959 - production of armored vehicles and recoilless rifles was launched).
The next stage in Komatsu's development was the globalization of the company. By 1955, Komatsu equipment became “crowded” in Japan. The first export delivery of equipment - GD37 motor graders - was carried out to Argentina.
In 1964, Komatsu opened its first foreign representative office - in India, and already in 1967-1971 - a whole “series” of representative offices in Europe, Asia and America, including a representative office in the Soviet Union.
1975 was the year Komatsu opened its first overseas plant in Brazil, followed by the opening of plants in Indonesia in 1982, and plants in England and the United States in 1985 and 1986, respectively.
In 1988, Komatsu carried out its first international takeover (initially in a 50% to 50% ratio) of the American company Dresser (the final takeover of Dresser took place in 1994 - in 1996 it was renamed Komatsu America International Company). Then - the creation of another joint venture (1986) - in Germany with the Hanomag company (in 1995 renamed Komatsu - Hanomag).
1995 - opening of Komatsu Saigon Co Ltd in Vietnam, Bangkok Komatsu Co Ltd in Thailand, and the founding of FKI Fai Komatsu Industries SpA (renamed Komatsu Utility Europe SpA in 2000) in Italy. At the same time, in 1995-1996, three subsidiaries were opened in China: Komatsu Shantui Construction Machinery Co Ltd, Komatsu Changlin Construction Machinery Co Ltd and Komatsu (Shanghai) Ltd.
In 1996, Demag Komatsu GmbH was opened in Germany (in 1999, becoming a 100% subsidiary of Komatsu, it was renamed Komatsu Mining Germany GmbH).
1998 - foundation of Komatsu Brasil International Ltda in Brazil, a joint venture with (USA) Industrial Power Alliance Ltd for the development and production of engines, and another joint venture in Russia with Kraneks International Company Limited.
Founded in 2004, also in China.
The next date is 2007 - the founding of Komatsu India.

Excerpt describing Komatsu
– You were angry that he did not enter these 700 rubles. After all, he wrote them in transport, but you didn’t look at the other page. “Dad, he’s a scoundrel and a thief, I know.” And he did what he did. And if you don’t want to, I won’t tell him anything. - No, my soul (the count was embarrassed too. He felt that he was a bad manager of his wife’s estate and was guilty before his children, but did not know how to correct this) - No, I ask you to take care of business, I’m old, I... - No, daddy, you will forgive me if I did something unpleasant to you; I know less than you. “To hell with them, with these men with money and transport all over the page,” he thought. Even from the corner of six jackpots, I once understood, but from the page of transport, I don’t understand anything,” he said to himself and since then he has not intervened in business anymore. Only one day the Countess called her son to her, told him that she had Anna Mikhailovna’s bill of exchange for two thousand and asked Nikolai what he thought to do with it. “That’s how it is,” answered Nikolai. – You told me that it depends on me; I don’t like Anna Mikhailovna and I don’t like Boris, but they were friendly with us and poor. So that's how it is! - and he tore the bill, and with this act he made the old countess cry with tears of joy. After this, young Rostov, no longer intervening in any matters, with passionate enthusiasm took up the still new business of hound hunting, which was started on a large scale by the old count. It was already winter, morning frosts were binding the earth, wetted by autumn rains, the greenery was already flattened and brightly green separated from the stripes of browning, cattle-killed, winter and light yellow spring stubble with red stripes of buckwheat. The peaks and forests, which at the end of August were still green islands between the black fields of winter crops and stubble, became golden and bright red islands among the bright green winter crops. The hare was already half worn out (molted), the fox litters were beginning to disperse, and the young wolves were larger than the dogs. It was the best hunting time. The dogs of the ardent, young hunter of Rostov not only entered the hunting body, but also got beaten up so much that in the general council of hunters it was decided to give the dogs a rest for three days and on September 16 to leave, starting from the oak grove, where there was an untouched wolf brood. This was the situation on September 14th. All this day the hunt was at home; It was frosty and bitter, but in the evening it began to cool down and thaw. On September 15, when young Rostov looked out the window in the morning in his dressing gown, he saw a morning that nothing could be better for hunting: as if the sky was melting and descending to the ground without wind. The only movement that was in the air was the quiet movement from top to bottom of microscopic drops of mg or fog descending. Transparent drops hung on the bare branches of the garden and fell on the newly fallen leaves. The soil in the garden, like a poppy, was glossy and wet black, and at a short distance merged with the dull and damp cover of fog. Nikolai stepped out onto the wet, muddy porch: it smelled of withering forest and dogs. The black-spotted, wide-bottomed bitch Milka with large black protruding eyes, seeing her owner, stood up, stretched back and lay down like a hare, then suddenly jumped up and licked him right on the nose and mustache. Another greyhound dog, seeing its owner from the colored path, arched its back, quickly rushed to the porch and, raising its tail, began to rub against Nikolai’s legs. - Oh goy! - at this time that inimitable hunting call was heard, which combines both the deepest bass and the most subtle tenor; and from around the corner came the arriving and hunting Danilo, a Ukrainian-style, gray-haired, wrinkled hunter with a cropped hair, a bent arapnik in his hand and with that expression of independence and contempt for everything in the world that only hunters have. He took off his Circassian hat in front of the master and looked at him contemptuously. This contempt was not offensive to the master: Nikolai knew that this Danilo, who despised everything and stood above all else, was still his man and hunter. - Danila! - said Nikolai, timidly feeling that at the sight of this hunting weather, these dogs and the hunter, he was already seized by that irresistible hunting feeling in which a person forgets all previous intentions, like a man in love in the presence of his mistress. -What do you order, your excellency? - asked the protodeacon's bass, hoarse from raking, and two black shining eyes glanced from under their brows at the silent master. “What, or won’t you be able to stand it?” as if those two eyes said.
