Toyoda Gosei moves Shanghai HQ, enhances technical support

Kiyosu, Japan – Toyoda Gosei has relocated the regional headquarters for its automotive parts business in Shanghai, China, to a “larger space”, the company has announced.

The move, which was made in January, is intended to strengthen the company’s technical development operations in the country, Toyoda Gosei said.

In addition to the Shanghai regional HQ, Toyoda Gosei has regional production operations in nine locations in the cities of Tianjin, Zhangjiagang, Fuzhou, and Foshan, plus Taiwan. These provide rubber and plastics parts for the local operations of Toyota Motor Corp. and other automakers.

“Shanghai TG’s new location has floor space about four times larger than its previous office and includes a test area,” said the report. The move, it added, was to create a technical development system that could respond “swiftly” to the needs of local customers.
