TSUNEISHI HEAVY INDUSTRIES (CEBU), Inc. was founded in 1994 in the town of Balamban, in the western part of Cebu Island in the Philippines, as an overseas factory of TSUNEISHI SHIPBUILDING Co., Ltd. (head office: Fukuyama, Hiroshima, Japan). At the time of its founding, successful examples of expansions into overseas markets were extremely rare in Japan’s shipbuilding industry. The history of the development of Tsuneishi’s new-shipbuilding and repair businesses has been lined with challenges and changes.
At the website “Challenges & Changes,” you can view historic photos of the development of Tsuneishi’s shipbuilding business, starting with the construction of the shipyard and continuing to the construction of bulk carriers and car carriers and the expansion of production equipment due to the growth of the factory. You can also learn about Tsuneishi’s wide variety of CSR activities aimed at developing the local region, as well as read a congratulatory message from Philippine president H. E. Benigno S. Aquino III.
