The connection between the Tsuneishi Group and South America began in 1956, when the Tsuneishi Shipbuilding Company’s second president Hideo Kambara, who was the mayor of Numakuma-gun in Hiroshima Prefecture (currently Numakuma-cho,Fukuyama City)at the time, offered his support for a project aimed towards emigration to Paraguay.
In recent years, the Tsuneishi Group, which primarily focuses on developing global ship construction and marine transportation businesses, has observed a marked increase in the necessity for river transportation and infrastructure maintenance in line with the growth of the South American export industry and overall economic development.
Established in 2008, ASTILLERO TSUNEISHI PARAGUAY S.A. is a shipyard where river transport barges and pusher boats are constructed and repairs are carried out.
Through the establishment of companies such as, GL SOUTH AMERICA S.A.(agriculture and farming management),KAMBARA CONSTRUCCION Y DESARROLLO S.A.(infrastructure and building and construction infrastructure maintenance), TCV PARAGUAY S.A.(development of automotive maintenance and used parts trading companies), TSUNEISHI PARAGUAY IRON WORKS S.R.L.(machining,ship outfitting and pipe production for pusher boats), we are hoping to contribute to the economic development of Paraguay in a wide range of business fields.
