 PROFILE
Even though it's Japan's largest general contractor, Shimizu is also engaged in engineering and construction projects worldwide. Founded in 1804, the company's projects include design, commercial, industrial, and residential construction, and infrastructure development. Shimizu also sells and leases construction machinery and materials. The company's R&D activities include formulating new design techniques and construction methods (including developing new building procedures for use in earthquake-prone Japan). Major projects include Nippon Television's headquarters and a warehouse for the UK's Dairy Crest. Shimizu plans to spin off its real estate operations into a new subsidiary in order to focus on construction.
