Let me begin by wishing you all a Happy New Year and by expressing my heartfelt wishes for your good health in 2012.

The world currently finds itself in the midst of a period of dramatic and historic instability. To survive these complex, rapid, and extreme changes and become No.1 in the LE industry, we must strive to be a strong company.

A strong company is a company capable of achieving two goals year after year, no matter what external factors it may face: generating profits and developing its human resources. Today’s profits are the proof of our past efforts, while the future is the reason for human resource development today.

I want the Tadano Group to strive to be a company in which we can take pride, around the world and into the future.

I hope we can count on your understanding and support this year.


Koichi Tadano
President and Representative Director (CEO)
