Nzvimbo yekuratidzira yeTokyo/Osaka-Shimano iri kumahofisi makuru eOsaka ndiyo nzvimbo huru yetekinoroji iyi, iyo yakaita kuti kambani iyi ive nezita guru mumakwikwi emabhasikoro pasi rose.
Bhasikoro rinorema makirogiramu manomwe chete uye rine zvinhu zvakakosha zvinogona kusimudzwa zviri nyore neruoko rumwe chete. Vashandi veShimano vakanongedzera kuzvigadzirwa zvakaita seDura-Ace series, iyo yakagadzirwa kuti ishandiswe mumakwikwi emumugwagwa muna 1973 uye yakazoratidzwazve muTour de France yegore rino, iyo yakapera muParis vhiki rino.
Sezvo zvikamu zveShimano zvakagadzirwa sekit, imba yekutengesera yakabatana nebasa guru refekitori yekambani iri pedyo. Ikoko, mazana evashandi vari kushanda nesimba kugadzira zvikamu kuti zvigutse kudiwa kwepasi rose mukuzivikanwa kusati kwamboitika kwemabhasikoro.
Shimano ine mamiriro akafanana mumafekitori gumi nemashanu pasi rose. "Parizvino hapana fekitori isiri kushanda zvizere," akadaro Taizo Shimano, mutungamiri wekambani.
Kuna Taizo Shimano, uyo akagadzwa senhengo yechitanhatu yemhuri iyi kutungamira kambani gore rino, izvo zvinoenderana nemhemberero yemakore zana ekambani, iyi inguva inobatsira asi inonetsa.
Kubva pakutanga kwedenda re coronavirus, kutengesa kweShimano nemari yave kukwira nekuti vatsva vanoda mavhiri maviri - vamwe vanhu vari kutsvaga nzira iri nyore yekurovedza muviri panguva yekuvharirwa, vamwe vanosarudza kutasva bhasikoro kuenda kubasa, Panzvimbo pekutyaira mota dzevanhu vakawanda neushingi.
Mari yaShimano yakawanikwa muna 2020 inosvika mabhiriyoni makumi matanhatu nematatu emadhora ekuAmerica (mamiriyoni mazana mashanu nemakumi manomwe nemana emadhora ekuAmerica), kuwedzera kwe22.5% kupfuura gore rapfuura. Mugore remari ra2021, kambani iyi inotarisira kuti mari yayo ichakwira zvakare kusvika mabhiriyoni makumi manomwe nemapfumbamwe emadhora ekuAmerica. Gore rapfuura, kukosha kwayo pamusika kwakapfuura kambani inogadzira mota yekuJapan yeNissan. Iye zvino yava 2.5 trillion yen.
Asi kuwedzera kwemabhasikoro kwakakonzera dambudziko kuShimano: kuramba ichienderana nekudiwa kwezvikamu zvayo kusingagutsikane.
"Tinokumbira ruregerero zvikuru nekuda kwe [kushomeka kwemidziyo] ... Tinoshorwa ne [mugadziri wemabhasikoro]," Shimano Taizo akadaro mubvunzurudzo yakaitwa nguva pfupi yadarika neNikkei Asia. Akati kudiwa kwemidziyo "kwakanyanya," achiwedzera kuti anotarisira kuti maitiro aya arambe aripo kusvika gore rinouya.
Kambani iyi iri kugadzira zvinhu nekukurumidza zvikuru. Shimano akati kugadzirwa kwegore rino kuchawedzera ne50% mugore ra2019.
Iri kuisa mari inosvika mabhiriyoni gumi nematatu emadhora emayen mumafekitori emuno mumatunhu eOsaka neYamaguchi kuti iwedzere kugona kwayo kugadzira zvinhu uye kuvandudza mashandiro ayo. Iri kuwedzerawo muSingapore, inova ndiyo kambani yekutanga kugadzira zvinhu kunze kwenyika yakavakwa makore anoda kusvika mashanu apfuura. Guta iri rakaisa mari inosvika mabhiriyoni makumi maviri emadhora emayen mufekitori itsva inogadzira magedhi emabhasikoro nezvimwe zvikamu. Mushure mekunge kuvakwa kwambomiswa nekuda kwezvirambidzo zveCOVID-19, fekitori iyi yakarongerwa kutanga kugadzira pakupera kwa2022 uye pakutanga yakarongerwa kupera muna 2020.
Taizo Shimano akati haana chokwadi kana kudiwa kwakakonzerwa nedenda iri kucharamba kuchikwira kupfuura gore ra2023. Asi munguva yepakati nerefu, anotenda kuti nekuda kwekuwedzera kweruzivo rwehutano rwevanhu vepakati nepakati vekuAsia uye kuwedzera kweruzivo rwekuchengetedzwa kwezvakatipoteredza pasi rose, indasitiri yemabhasikoro ichatora nzvimbo. "Vanhu vakawanda vari kunetseka nezvehutano [hwavo]," akadaro.
Zvinoita sezviri pachena kuti Shimano haizosangana nedambudziko rekupikisa zita rayo semutengesi wepamusoro wezvikamu zvemabhasikoro pasi rose munguva pfupi, kunyange zvazvo ikozvino inofanira kuratidza kuti inogona kutora chikamu chinotevera chemusika chiri kukura: bhatiri remabhasikoro remagetsi rine simba diki.
Shimano yakavambwa muna 1921 naShimano Masaburo muSakai City (inozivikanwa se "Iron City") pedyo neOsaka sefekitori yesimbi. Gore rimwe chete mushure mekutangwa kwayo, Shimano yakatanga kugadzira mavhiri emabhasikoro - nzira yekutsvedza kumashure yaibvumira kutsvedza.
Chimwe chezvinhu zvinoita kuti kambani ibudirire inyanzvi yayo yekugadzira zvinhu zvinotonhora, iyo inosanganisira kudzvanya nekugadzira simbi patembiricha yemumba. Yakaoma uye inoda tekinoroji yepamusoro, asi inogonawo kugadziriswa nemazvo.
Shimano yakakurumidza kuva kambani inotungamira mukugadzira zvinhu muJapan, uye kubva kuma1960, pasi pehutungamiriri hwemutungamiri wayo wechina, Yoshizo Shimano, yakatanga kuwana vatengi vari kunze kwenyika. Yoshizo, uyo akafa gore rapera, akashanda semukuru wemabasa ekambani muUS neEurope, achibatsira kambani yeJapan kupinda mumusika waimbotongwa nevagadziri vekuEurope. Europe ikozvino ndiyo musika mukuru weShimano, uchitora chikamu chinosvika 40% chekutengesa kwayo. Zvose, 88% yekutengesa kweShimano gore rapera kwakabva kunzvimbo dziri kunze kweJapan.
Shimano ndiye akagadzira pfungwa ye "system components", inova seti yezvikamu zvebhasikoro zvakaita semagiya ekudzora magiya nemabhureki. Izvi zvakasimbisa simba reShimano pasi rose, zvikaita kuti itumidzwe zita remadunhurirwa rekuti "Intel of Bicycle Parts". Pari zvino Shimano ine chikamu chinosvika 80% chemusika wepasi rose mumasisitimu ekufambisa mabhasikoro: muTour de France yegore rino, zvikwata gumi nenomwe pa23 zvakatora chikamu zvakashandisa zvikamu zveShimano.
Vachitungamirirwa naYozo Shimano, uyo akatora chigaro chemutungamiri wenyika muna 2001 uye iye zvino ari sachigaro wekambani, kambani iyi yakakura pasi rose ikavhura matavi muAsia. Kugadzwa kwaTaizo Shimano, muzukuru waYoshizo uye hama yaYozo, kunoratidza danho rinotevera rekukura kwekambani.
Sezvinoratidzwa neruzivo rwekutengesa nepurofiti rwekambani munguva pfupi yapfuura, neimwe nzira, ino ndiyo nguva yakakodzera yekuti Taizo atungamire Shimano. Asati apinda mubhizinesi remhuri, akadzidza muUnited States uye akashanda muchitoro chemabhasikoro kuGermany.
Asi kushanda zvakanaka kwekambani iyi munguva pfupi yapfuura kwakaisa mitemo yepamusoro. Kusangana nezvinodiwa nevanoisa mari kuchava dambudziko. "Pane zvinhu zvine njodzi nekuti kudiwa kwemabhasikoro mushure medenda hakuna chokwadi," akadaro Satoshi Sakae, muongorori weDaiwa Securities. Mumwe muongorori, uyo akakumbira kusadudzwa zita rake, akati Shimano "anofunga kuti kuwedzera kukuru kwemitengo yemasheya muna 2020 kwakakonzerwa neaimbova purezidhendi wake Yozo."
Muhurukuro naNikkei Shimbun, Shimano Taizo akataura nezvenzvimbo mbiri huru dzekukura. "Asia ine misika miviri mikuru, China neIndia," akadaro. Akawedzera kuti kambani iyi icharamba ichitarisa pamusika wekuSoutheast Asia, uko kuchovha mabhasikoro kuri kutanga kuonekwa senzvimbo yekuvaraidza, kwete kungofambisa chete.
Sekureva kwedata kubva kuEuromonitor International, musika wemabhasikoro muChina unotarisirwa kusvika US$16 bhiriyoni panosvika gore ra2025, kuwedzera kwe51.4% mugore ra2020, ukuwo musika wemabhasikoro muIndia unotarisirwa kukura ne48% munguva imwe chete kusvika US$1.42 bhiriyoni.
Justinas Liuima, mukuru wezvekupa mazano kuEuromonitor International, akati: “Kugara mumaguta, kuwedzera ruzivo rwehutano, kuisa mari muzvivakwa zvemabhasikoro uye shanduko mumafambiro ekufamba mushure medenda zvinotarisirwa kuwedzera kudiwa kwemabhasikoro mu[Asia].” Gore ra2020, Asia Yakapa mari inosvika 34% yemari yese yaShimano.
MuChina, kuwedzera kwemabhasikoro emitambo kwakabatsira kuwedzera kutengeswa kweShimano ikoko, asi kwakasvika pakakwirira muna 2014. "Kunyangwe zvichiri kure nepamusoro-soro, kushandiswa kwemabhasikoro epamba kwakwira zvakare," akadaro Taizo. Anofanotaura kuti kudiwa kwemabhasikoro emhando yepamusoro kuchadzoka.
MuIndia, Shimano yakavamba kambani yekutengesa nekuparadzira zvinhu muBangalore muna 2016. Taizo akati: “Zvichiri kutora nguva kuti musika uwedzere, uyo uri mudiki asi une mukana mukuru. “Ndinowanzo shamisika kana kudiwa kwemabhasikoro muIndia kuchakura, asi zvakaoma,” akadaro. Asi akawedzera kuti vamwe vanhu vepakati nepakati muIndia vanotasva mabhasikoro mangwanani-ngwanani kuti vadzivise kupisa.
Fekitori itsva yeShimano muSingapore haizongove nzvimbo yekugadzira zvigadzirwa zvemusika wekuAsia chete, asiwo nzvimbo yekudzidzisa vashandi nekugadzira matekinoroji ekugadzira zvinhu kuChina neSoutheast Asia.
Kuwedzera simba rayo munyaya dzemabhasikoro emagetsi chimwe chikamu chakakosha chechirongwa chekukura kweShimano. Nyanzvi yeDaiwa Sakae yakati mabhasikoro emagetsi anowana mari inosvika 10% yemari inowanikwa neShimano, asi kambani iyi iri kumashure kwevakwikwidzi vakaita saBosch, kambani yekuGermany inozivikanwa nezvikamu zvayo zvemotokari, iyo ine basa rakanaka muEurope.
Mabhasikoro emagetsi anonetsa vagadziri vemabhasikoro vekare vakaita saShimano nekuti anofanira kukunda zvipingamupinyi zvitsva zvehunyanzvi, zvakaita sekuchinja kubva pasystem yekutumira michina kuenda kusystem yekutumira magetsi. Zvikamu izvi zvinofanirawo kubatana zvakanaka nebhatiri nemota.
Shimano anotarisanawo nemakwikwi makuru kubva kune vatambi vatsva. Mushure mekushanda muindasitiri iyi kwemakore anopfuura makumi matatu, Shimano anoziva matambudziko acho. "Kana zvasvika pamabhasikoro emagetsi, kune vatambi vakawanda muindasitiri yemotokari," akadaro. "[Indasitiri yemotokari] inofunga nezvehukuru nedzimwe pfungwa nenzira yakasiyana zvachose neyedu."
Bosch yakatanga sisitimu yayo yemabhasikoro emagetsi muna 2009 uye ikozvino inopa zvikamu zvemhando dzemabhasikoro dzinopfuura makumi manomwe pasi rose. Muna 2017, mugadziri wekuGermany akatopinda mumunda weShimano ndokupinda mumusika weJapan.
Chipangamazano weEuromonitor, Liuima, akati: “Makambani akadai seBosch ane ruzivo mukugadzira mota dzemagetsi uye ane cheni yepasi rose yekupa zvinhu inogona kukwikwidzana nevatengesi vemagetsi vane hunyanzvi mumusika wemabhasikoro emagetsi.”
"Ndinofunga kuti mabhasikoro emagetsi achava chikamu chezvivakwa [zvemagariro evanhu]," akadaro Taizang. Kambani iyi inotenda kuti nekuwedzera kuri kuita kutariswa kwezvakatipoteredza pasi rose, simba remagetsi rinova nzira yakajairika yekufambisa. Inofanotaura kuti kana musika wawana simba, uchapararira nekukurumidza uye zvishoma nezvishoma.
