日本山村硝子 agreed to establish a joint-venture sales company with Taiwanese company 宏全國際集団 to expand sales channels in Japan. The company is reportedly aiming to establish it on 2 November, strengthening the two companies' cooperative framework.
日本山村硝子 produces and sells plastic caps in Japan and overseas, while 宏全國際集団 operates at 52 locations in 9 countries, including Taiwan, China, Southeast Asia and Africa. The two companies entered into a business alliance in October 2023. The establishment of the joint venture is intended to take that relationship a step further and support the overseas expansion of Japanese beverage manufacturers.
The joint venture will combine 宏全國際集団's product lineup, development and production capabilities, and overseas supply network with 日本山村硝子's quality and logistics services in the domestic market. Through the new structure, the companies plan to expand sales not only in Japan but also in overseas markets.
宏全國際集団's 2025 revenue was reportedly NT$28.8 billion and total assets were NT$46.8 billion. 日本山村硝子 said that the joint venture is expected to have a limited impact on consolidated results. The two companies aim to further strengthen their cooperation.
The companies have built on their 2023 business alliance by expanding sales channels in the Japanese market, pursuing contract manufacturing and joint development of new products, and expanding their global sales network. The establishment of the new joint venture is expected to advance the integration of domestic and overseas supply systems and services.
