Happy Holidays from Okuma America Corporation
Jim King 12.19.2018
On behalf of the entire Okuma family, I'd like to wish you, your family, and your organization a very happy holiday season and a prosperous new year.
Strong Year for Manufacturing
At this time of year we often reflect on our personal and organizational blessings, and 2018 has certainly been a momentous year for our company. We’ve seen a strong resurgence in manufacturing driving the markets, and in almost every industry we’ve seen investments in technology and a deepening in our customer relationships.
Investing in Innovation
Through our investment in technology and manufacturing excellence we announced many new and next-generation products, many of which were on display at IMTS. These new introductions include lathes, machining centers, 5-axis machines, networking capabilities, and multiple automation solutions.
We’ve also invested in state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities, such as our Dream Site 1 and 2 production facilities in Japan, as well as our new Kani, Japan facility which will be dedicated to the production of machining centers.
Service to Customers and Community
Our commitment to our customers, employees and community is just as strong as our commitment to technology. We are blessed to have had 41 employees join our organization in 2018. They joined our current employees in enhancing our services to both customers and our local community. Together we are able to contribute to our community through programs such as Tools for Schools, Promising Pages, the American Red Cross, and many more, which ultimately creates a better world for everyone.
We wish you a wonderful holiday season, and we look forward to working with you in the new year!
