Since
the birth of HIROSE in 1937, the company has developed and introduced thousands of new
connectors for numerous applications.
Hirose first appeared on the international stage in 1968 and has since crafted a network
of sales offices, agents and production facilities around the world.
The company continues to broaden the scope of its business activities, keeping pace with
market advances and satisfying the changing connector needs of companies in Europe, Asia
and North America. Hirose's vigorous international
strategy rests on three pillars: strong capital investment, a highly skilled labor force,
and close contact with the product development divisions of client manufacturers
throughout the world.
With the technical knowledge gained from this contact, and
backed by the company's own human and financial resources, Hirose is dedicated to meeting
connector demand world-wide and to contribute meaningfully to progress in connector
technology.
Recognizing the need to serve the U.S. markets and to
compete internationally, Hirose established Hirose Electric U.S.A., Inc. in 1980.
Hirose's strategy in the United States is to develop the marketing, engineering and
manufacturing capabilities to the same level as that of Hirose, Japan.
This is needed in order to offer highly advanced inter-connect solutions to customers in
the U.S. markets.
In keeping with Hirose's commitment to quality, Hirose
Electric, USA was certified as a QS9000 company in November of 2000 and continues to
be certified QS9000 as such. Proof of certification is available upon request.
Hirose USA's headquarter is located at Simi Valley,
California and has 40,000 square foot facility which houses marketing, sales, engineering,
manufacturing and warehousing space. Hirose USA also has 3 sales offices in United States,
which are located in Chicago, IL, Dallas, TX, and San Jose, CA. |
