Company profile:
Toyota Kirloskar Motors Ltd (TKM) is a joint venture between the Kirloskar group and Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC), Japan.
The Toyota Motor Co Ltd was first established in 1937 as a spin-off from Toyoda Automatic Loom Works, one of the leading manufacturers of weaving machinery in the world at the time.
In the mid 1940s the founder of Toyoda Automatic Loom Works, Sakichi Toyoda, sold the patent rights of one of his machines to Platt Brothers of the UK and with the money he established Toyota Motor Company.
Toyota launched its first small car (SA Model) in 1947 in Japan. In 1959 Toyota commenced production of vehicles outside Japan, also beginning with a small plant in Brazil. It was soon to develop a number of automotive plants in many other countries.
Toyota’s success in the automotive business is based on its policy of localisation of its operations in order to provide customers with the products they need where they need them. The company believes that this builds mutually beneficial long-term relationships with local suppliers and helps the company fulfil its commitments to local labour.
Toyota is by far the largest Japanese automotive manufacturer, producing more than 4.5 million vehicles per year, equivalent to one car manufactured every six seconds. Toyota’s plant in India is situated at Bidadi, Karnataka, which is a green belt. Toyota’s commitment to preserving the environment is very high.
Toyota all over the world provides a wide selection of innovative, reasonable priced and high-quality products through an exclusive dealer network with the best sales and after-sales service at global Toyota standards. Timely customer feedback through the service network also allows the company to respond to emerging customer needs and introduce new products tailored to the Indian market.
