Petersime appoints new distributor for Japan

Press Release

The Japanese company Hytem Co Ltd, established in Kakamigahara, Gifu, will start distributing Petersime's products and services in the Japanese market from March 2, 2012. 

Hytem is an innovative company supplying automated equipment for egg farms. It is the leading supplier of layer cages in Japan with a market share of about 50%.

Moreover, Hytem is quickly challenging new markets, such as equipment for broiler farms, gas infrared heating systems for industrial buildings and from now on high-end hatchery and incubation equipment.

Its president, Katsuhiko Yasuda, can rely on an extensive team of experienced area sales managers, engineers, and researchers.

Petersime's previous distributor Sekine Co Ltd has decided to specialise in equipment for the pig industry, and therefore hands over its poultry branch to Hytem.

Suehisa will be transferred from Sekine to Hytem and will continue to serve his experience and knowledge to the existing Petersime customers, and to the young Hytem staff.

Hytem will be present at the International Pig & Poultry Show (IPPS) in Nagoya, Japan, from June 6-8, 2012.
