Founded in 1884 as Tsukiji Iron Works, Japan’s first heavy engineering enterprise, the company evolved through mergers and expansions under the Mitsubishi conglomerate. It played a pivotal role in Japan’s industrialization, producing warships in the early 20th century and later contributing to post-war reconstruction. After the reorganization of Japan’s industrial groups following World War II, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries reestablished itself in the 1960s and has since grown into a multinational corporation with a network of manufacturing sites and service centers worldwide.
Headquartered in Tokyo, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries serves customers across Asia, Europe, the Americas and the Middle East.
