By spreading the “reasonable price” of housing building materials,
We aim to be a company that contributes to society.
■Our goal is to maximize customer satisfaction, and by providing and pursuing high-quality products and construction at an inexpensive and clear price system, we aim to change the conventional knowledge of the housing industry and achieve more reasonable prices.
■ In the housing industry, troubles are increasing due to unclear price system and irresponsible construction, which is becoming a social problem. Our company will continue to realize significant discounts for housing materials by cutting the middle margin significantly through our own distribution channel..
■ Not only cheap, but also clear “product quotation” and “construction quotation” are presented separately, and a CG perspective establishes a flexible system that does not exist in other companies, providing total support from preliminary confirmation of completed drawings and estimation quotes that cover from the beginning of designs to the end of construction.
