Mitsui & Co. trades and invests in resources, energy, machinery, chemicals and food. Its global businesses combine commercial, logistics and financial capabilities.
History and development
The present Mitsui & Co. was established in 1947. It draws on the heritage of the older Mitsui founded in 1876 but is a legally separate company. Its activities expanded from trade into investment in resources, logistics and infrastructure; historical lineage and incorporation are different milestones.
