Daito Trust Construction Co., Ltd. (OTCMKTS:DIFTY) is a diversified Japanese construction and real estate services company founded in 1937 and headquartered in Osaka. Over its eight-decade history, the firm has grown from a small regional builder into one of Japan’s largest providers of rental housing, comprehensive property management and civil engineering services. Daito Trust Construction’s activities span the full lifecycle of residential development, including land acquisition, architectural design, construction, leasing and ongoing facility maintenance.
The company’s core business centers on the design and construction of multi‐unit rental housing under the “Leopalace” and “Circle” brand names, which emphasize quality finishes, energy-efficient systems and earthquake-resistant structures. In addition to housing developments, Daito Trust Construction engages in large‐scale civil engineering and infrastructure projects—such as roads, bridges and flood control facilities—through its subsidiary network. Complementary services include insurance brokerage, interior design and specialized renovation programs aimed at extending asset lifespans for property owners.
While the majority of Daito Trust Construction’s operations are concentrated in major metropolitan areas across Japan, the company has also pursued selective overseas ventures in Southeast Asia to broaden its development and property management footprint. Through partnerships and joint ventures, it has explored residential and commercial projects in markets like Thailand and Vietnam, leveraging Japanese construction standards and property services expertise. This international expansion aligns with the firm’s strategy to offset domestic demographic headwinds and capture growth in emerging urban centers.
The company is led by President and CEO Hiroshi Ozaki, whose three decades of industry experience have guided Daito Trust Construction’s steady expansion and diversification efforts. Under his leadership, the firm continues to invest in digital construction technologies, smart‐home solutions and sustainable building practices. A board of directors composed of seasoned professionals in finance, engineering and real estate oversight supports corporate governance and long‐term strategic planning.
