COMMENT

 

IMPORTER AND WHOLESALER SPECIALIZING IN TUNISIAN FOODSTUFFS. FINANCIAL SITUATION CONSIDERED RATHER WEAK BUT SHOULD BE GOOD FOR MODERATE BUSINESS ENGAGEMENTS.

MAX CREDIT LIMIT OF THE PARENT IS ESTIMATED AT YEN 4.5 MILLION, 30 DAYS NORMAL TERMS.

 

 

HIGHLIGHTS

 

The subject company was established on the basis of a trading division separated from KK Hubnet, international door-to-door express parcel delivery service provider, at the caption address.  This is virtually a trading division belonging to the parent, with management & operations fully integrated.  M Muraki is concurrently pres at the parent.  Specializes in importing foodstuffs from Tunisia; also handles UN certified packaging & containers for dangerous goods, as sole agent for E3-Cortex, France.  Foodstuffs include: couscous, harissa, chamura, extra virgin olive oil, etc, all from Tunisia.  Handles Tunisian cooking utensils, too.  Wines are also imported.  Offers Arabic translation & interpretation services, too. 

 

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

The subject does not disclose any of the financials and the following figures have been estimated by us based on the telephone conversation with the treasurer.  We have attached, for reference, the financial report (only partially) of the parent, KK Hubnet.

 

The revenues for Dec/2006 fiscal term amounted to Yen 60 million, up 20% from Yen 50 million in the previous term.  The net profit remained at a minimum amount, unchanged from previously.  The parent reported sales for the 31/07/2006 fiscal term at Yen 230 million, similarly a year earlier.

 

For the current term ending Dec 2007 the net profit is projected at Yen 1 million, on a 10% rise in turnover, to Yen 66 million.  Weaker Yen may contribute to uplift sales in Yen terms.  All figures are estimated by us only.

 

The financial situation is considered RATHER WEAK but should be good for MODERATE business engagements.  Max credit limit is estimated at Yen 700,000, on fully secured terms or under guarantee from the parent, KK Hubnet, recommended.  The parent’s max credit limit is estimated at Yen 4.5 million, on 30 days normal terms.
