The company is part of the world-wide Sanko Gosei Ltd Group whose headquarters are in Toyama, Japan and is a specialist tool maker and plastic injection moulder. The company design and manufacture components for clients in the automobile and business equipment markets such as Honda, Nissan, Rover, Volvo, Canon and Sanyo.

Since locating to West Lancashire, Sanko Gosei's turnover has increased tenfold. The business has achieved ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and QS 9000.

"The history of developmental relationships between Japan and the UK, and the country's cost-effective manufacturing costs made Britain the ideal location for our European base," explained Niino San, Managing Director of Sanko Gosei UK.

Ongoing support from the District Council and partners, skilled local people and the excellent facilities of West Lancashire lead Niino San to say, "We feel at home here".
