Marubeni-Itochu Steel Inc. (MISI) was launched in October 2001 through a joint incorporation-type company split, formed by spinning off and merging the steel product divisions of two premier general trading companies. Ever since, we have mobilized our integrated strength as a general trading company, raising the caliber of added value and services throughout all our transactions and business endeavors and excelling as a company fully attuned to the needs of customers.

Moving forward, we are committed to addressing the growing demands for renewable energy and decarbonization, while promoting the digitalization of supply chains through initiatives that lead transformation. With an unwavering resolve under the motto “Powering the future with steel,” we will reassess our roles and challenge ourselves to embrace change. While cherishing the pioneering spirit that has been passed down since our establishment, we will remain sensitive to the shifts in society and the times as a frontrunner in steel distribution industry, demonstrating leadership through our business endeavors to realize a better world alongside our stakeholders.

To contribute to the global challenge for carbon neutrality, the MISI Group has set a Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions intermediate reduction target of 50 percent by fiscal 2030, and we are actively promoting concrete activities aimed at reducing emissions. We now also offer MIeCO2—a cloud-based service that calculates, visualizes and analyzes the amounts of greenhouse gas emissions generated along the entire supply chains, has achieved significant results, including recognition by the Government of Japan as part of the “Comprehensive Efficiency Plan Development Project for Fiscal Year 2024 Modal Shift Promotion.” In our pursuit of a decarbonized society, we shall endeavor to align ourselves with the needs of our esteemed customers while simultaneously contributing to both business advancement and the well-being of our brighter future.

In May 2025, we will be relocating our headquarters. Departing from the cherished location of Nihonbashi, we will move to Yaesu, directly opposite Tokyo Station. With a fresh start, we are determined to dedicate ourselves even more diligently to our work and meet expectations of all our stakeholders.

Continued support and patronage are sincerely requested.
