Fujita Corporation has continually expanded its role in construction and in urban redevelopment since the Fujita brothers started their engineering-works construction contract business in Hiroshima in 1910.
Although the city of Hiroshima was devastated by the detonation of the first atomic bomb during World War II, the Fujita Corporation continued to grow, both in scale and reputation. The rebuilding of Japan following World War II led to the modernization of the construction industry generally and to the introduction of long-range management planning. As a consequence of Fujita's expansion over this period, parts of the businesss were listed on the Tokyo and Osaka securities exchange in 1963.
In 1959-60 we founded the Fujita Technical Institute - an in-house R&D center designed to bring innovative new technologies to the construction industry - such as fully automated construction, new computing techniques and environmental technologies.
Whilst we are engaged in construction of many high-profile projects in Japan (such as the Shinkansen and the Tokyo Olympic Games institution) we have also undertaken major projects in Europe, Central America, the Middle East, Cina and Southeast Asia.
Since the 1960s, we have been heavily involved in construction management and, since 1990, we have been increasingly aware of the environmental responsibilities of construction companies. Our major aims are best summarized by our new slogan "Fujita - Creating Superior Environments ".
