The Yamazaki Corporation

What The Yamazaki Corporation does

The Yamazaki Corporation is a privately-held Japanese manufacturer of environmental and cleaning products founded in 1940 (incorporated 1949) and headquartered in Osaka. The company operates five business divisions — household products, business/professional products, rooftop greening, medical and nursing care, and hygiene measures — producing roughly 6,000 items under the CONDOR flagship brand and sub-brands including SUSU, Bathbonkun, 2989.jp+, and CONDOR Green. Its underlying technology spans resin, metal, fiber, and chemical formulation / filling processes, with proprietary elements in microfiber cleaning mesh, surfactant-free environmental cleaning solutions (Hyper Aqua), lightweight rooftop greening mat systems (Eco Green Mat), and nursing-care handrail systems (Rakki).

The company generates revenue through one-time product sales rather than subscriptions or licensing. Its go-to-market is sales-led and organized by business division, with a direct-sales force operating out of 13 nationwide offices supported by four logistics centers and three domestic factories (Itami, Tochigi, Okayama). Customer segments span mass-market Japanese consumers (household cleaning and sanitary goods), commercial facilities (stations, schools, offices, retail — served under the CONDOR brand), and institutional buyers in nursing care and rooftop-greening applications. Two wholly-owned overseas subsidiaries (CONDOR VIETNAM Co., Ltd. established 2014 in Binh Duong, and CONDOR Co., Ltd. / Kang Duo Le in Fujian, China) provide low-cost manufacturing capacity. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is handled through direct quotation by product division.

The company is family-controlled under Chairman Michiyuki Ito and President Shunji Doi, with no institutional investor or public-market ownership identified. It holds ISO 14001 (since 2002) and ISO 9001 (since 2006) certifications across headquarters and all domestic factories, and has received recent government and civic commendations (METI 2024 for Noto earthquake relief; Hyogo Prefecture and Japan World Expo Association 2025). The CONDOR IoT Solution sub-brand and 2025 web-catalog relaunch indicate modest digital-channel investment, but there are no disclosed AI/ML, software-platform, or data-driven revenue streams.
