Japan Industrial Partners Team

JAPAN INDUSTRIAL PARTNERS, INC. was established in 2002 to support the revitalization of Japanese companies. Since that time we have provided capital and management support for business carve outs (company splits) from large companies and also capital for the restructuring of stand-alone medium-sized companies. Over this period, our cumulative investments total 30 businesses, mainly in manufacturing, but also in a wider range of industries, such as food, distribution, and services. And we have employed a variety of approaches to investment, including corporate carve-outs and MBOs. In monetary terms, our investment total exceeds 600 billion yen. Following the burst of the economic bubble in the 1990s, Japanese companies faced the existential challenge of slow growth in the domestic economy, while coping with the rapid rate of globalization, increased competition, and the rise of developing economies. Despite these challenges, we are convinced that there are many Japanese companies with the technology and the products to compete effectively in the global market.
