COMMENT

 

IMPORTER AND WHOLESALER SPECIALIZING IN CAKE & BREAD MAKING MATERIALS, THEIR PROCESSING MACHINERY AND WINES.  FINANCIAL SITUATION CONSIDERED FAIR AND GOOD FOR ORDINARY BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

 

MAX CREDIT LIMIT: YEN 33.3 MILLION, NORMAL 30 DAYS TERM.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established by Shohei Tsuchida in order to make most of his experience.  Specializes in importing and wholesaling dough, lactic butter, baking oil, pie-crest, yeast, other confectionery & bread making materials & ingredients; baking equipment, confectionery processing machinery, and wines.  Goods are imported from Netherlands, USA, UK, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, other EU countries.  Clients are domestic major bakeries, foodstuff processors, other.

 

Note: Regarding the corporate name: Yoko is pronounced in Japanese as “Yoh-Koh”, which means “going abroad”.  Shohei Tsuchida started buying goods by “going abroad”, chiefly Netherlands to start with. 

 

The sales volume for Sept/2005 fiscal term amounted to Yen 1,857 million, a 4% up from Yen 1,782 million in the previous term.  Sales of machinery division expanded.  The net profit was posted at Yen 50 million, compared with Yen 51 million a year ago.  Profitability is deteriorating due to rising costs of imports & operations.

 

For the current term ending Sept 2006 the net profit is projected at Yen 50 million, on a 3% rise in turnover, to Yen 1,900 million.  Machinery division sales continue rising.

 

The financial situation is considered FAIR to GOOD and responsible for ORDINARY business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 33.3 million, on normal 30 days terms.
