Hideki Tsutsumi, President Asahi Kasei Europe GmbH

"The city of Düsseldorf offers Asahi Kasei Europe GmbH the necessary urban infrastructure that we need to implement our strategy for the European market. Thanks to the support of the City Council of Düsseldorf we were able to launch our business activities at this location quickly and smoothly."

With the establishment of our new European headquarters, we want to move closer to our customers. We already supply almost all German automobile manufacturers and major component manufacturers. With our new location in Düsseldorf we will deepen our relations with the European and especially the German automotive industry and specifically expand our presence in the major markets in Europe.

We opted for Düsseldorf as a location because it is suitable and convenient. The city's central location in Europe means that all large cities are within easy reach; this is a huge advantage logistically. In addition there is a large Japanese community, which even has a Japanese kindergarten and a primary school. Finally, the possibility of a direct flight with the Japanese airline ANA from Düsseldorf to Tokyo was also a positive factor in our choice of location."
