Cutting tools that have become excess inventory in Japan

We export cutting tools that have become surplus inventory in the Japanese market

We purchase cutting tools that have become surplus inventory from the Japanese factrories(endusers) & distributors and then export them. These products include tools that became unnecessary due to business restructuring or changes in the design of manufacturing facilities, as well as tools that have become outdated models due to the release of new models by the tool manufacturer.

Since they are in stocks, these products are completely functional. They will definitely bring great economic benefits to your business.

Why Japanese companies have excess inventory?

The Japanese metalworking industry as a whole has been in decline for the past 10 to 20 years. In particular, small factories with 10 or fewer employees have been closing one by one due to the aging of their owners and the lack of successors. This trend has accelerated especially since COVID-19, and the small tool trading companies that supplied cutting tools to these factories have also been affected by the crisis, with some closing or being absorbed by relatively large companies.

Large companies are also actively restructuring their businesses, and when they close down a business, they end up with a large amount of unused cutting tools. In the past, there was a case where a company closed down its aviation-related business and we bought all the tools it had previously purchased for that business.

The manufacturer of the cutting tools we handle

Why are the cutting tools so cheap? Are they used?

No, they aren't used products. Since we procure surplus invetory (dead stocks) from the Japanese distributors and metalworking companies, we can offer low price even if they are in new condition. By doing business with us, you can maintain quality while also reaping significant economic benefits.
