What is for sale

This Kyoto based company designs, manufactures, and inspects precision plastic injection mould parts in house, covering everything from cutting to finishing and quality checks. It has built up its processing skill over 30 years, serving injection moulding and mould making clients. The owner is selling due to a lack of a successor.

Because this is a share transfer, the buyer acquires the company itself, meaning its factory lease or ownership, licences, and bank accounts carry over without needing to be reapplied for.

What is included

Company's own factory building
Land of approximately 330 tsubo in a quasi industrial zone
Production equipment
Business goodwill / customer relationships
Software (CAD/CAM systems)
Existing staff (10 employees, 8 in production)

Strengths (as the seller states them)

Combines veteran technicians' decades of experience with CAD/CAM for highly repeatable, high precision results
Capable of micron and sub micron level ultra high precision machining developed over 30 years
Fully integrated in house production from design through cutting, finishing, and inspection, shortening lead times and stabilising quality
Flexible multi-product, small lot production using general purpose machines and know-how, able to handle complex shapes and hard materials like ceramics

Wrinkles a careful buyer would ask about

Sale includes the company's own factory and land, so buyers should confirm the exact scope of assets being transferred
Buyer should check handover conditions and whether current production staff will stay on
Detailed financials (retained earnings, cash balance, total assets, interest bearing debt, net assets) are hidden until membership registration
Seller is also exploring other M&A brokers in parallel, so the deal could be taken by another buyer
No stated required qualifications for the buyer, though sales ability is noted as helpful

Paying for it

If you stay overseas. No Japanese bank will lend to a new company whose director lives abroad. The realistic stack is your own cash plus asking the owner to take part of the price over 2 to 3 years. That one question is in every Deal Pack.

If you move to Japan. On a visa that lets you run a business, Japan Finance Corporation lends up to ¥72M at about 1 to 2 percent for exactly this. Once you have a Japanese company, the government pays two-thirds of due diligence and registered-broker costs, up to about ¥8M (round 16 closes 6 Nov 2026). The company's existing bank relationship comes with it.

What this listing says. The listing does not mention existing debts or loan guarantees, but it does specify broker fees: an interim fee of 10% of the success fee at basic agreement, plus a success fee on a sliding scale with a minimum of ¥10,000,000, charged separately from TRANBI's own usage fees.
