Yamatake Corporation has announced that on June 9, 2008, it opened an India Representative Office in the Gurgaon district of the capital New Delhi in order to develop and expand its Building Automation (BA) and Advanced Automation (AA) businesses in India.

Yamatake will make use of this new Representative Office in the suburbs of New Delhi to spur on business in India. In recent years there has been a conspicuous increase in the number of Japanese companies starting operations in the region around New Delhi, and the main duties of this Representative Office are to assess potential demand associated with the building of factories by Japanese manufacturers, to develop a network of distributors based on market research, and to provide sales and technical support.

Yamatake is aiming at an overall growth rate of almost 20% per year for its international business, and for this reason it is expanding business by setting up new bases not only in the priority markets of China and Southeast Asia, but also in Vietnam and Dubai. The opening of this new representative office in the suburbs of New Delhi forms part of this plan to develop the foundation.
