It is likely to be greater economic condition in 2013 because of general election at the end of last year, and administration was changed. On the other hand, we really had been spent stoppage year in 2012.
Since our establishment, We have been growing rapidly thanks to the customers and overseas suppliers. Unfortunately we finish up the year 2012 as resulted in a low growth. I guess 2013 will be a year exchange rate that had been stable recent years would fluctuate dynamically. The relationship that we have had good stable for more than 20 years since 1990 between china has not been getting better since last year. I believe it is not easy to solve the problem with China. Although if territorial issue is solved, we would never be back to good relationship as importing various things like before. The life of the Chinese people have become rich and this is the one of the reason making issue complex. Japan and Japanese have not changed, but China and Chinese has changed drastically confident.
In the view of this social condition, we would like to be the trading company that supply and propose unique items in 2013. Firstly we propose the importation of products from countries other than China. Actually we have already imported from many countries around the world in fisheries business that started two years ago. We were able to create more partners in Scandinavia, Eastern Europe, South America, Australia, and Africa where we never visit if we deal only in chemical products.
I plan to build new market with the items we import from those countries to Japan as well as other than Japan.
When we communicate with supplier in over sea, we usually use the local language or English. However as you know there are many countries where English is not understood. In order to create better relationship quickly, Greenpacks has increased the number of employees who can speak Spanish last year. In this year, we must expand the business from trading between Japan and China to global trading. I feel the expansion of customer's request and has been increasing gradually from customers in Japan. We will satisfy this type of customers' needs.
