PARTS INFORMATION
Business experienceF
The biggest shareholder,Yoshikawa Kogyo Company Limited
already has experience in parts business with mainly
southeastern Asian customers during the past 3 years,on the
basis of more than 15,000 cars dismantled. Those parts were
collected from mostly all Japanese cars and some foreign-
made cars. The new company, WARC, is going to be formed
by gathering from the same and wider sources and is thus
able to provide a more preferable selection of parts to
customers.
Parts in stockF
ManufacturersF Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Suzuki,
Daihatsu, some from foreign made cars
Year of MakeF Low-Aged Cars (5-7 years old), Middle-Aged Cars
(7-9 years old), High-Aged Cars (10 years and
older)

Body Parts
AdvantageF
Since about 10 other dismantling companies are scheduled
to open their plants next to our plant within the next two
years, the area is going to become a huge parts-supplying location.
Therefore, customers can buy as many parts as they want
at the same place in case buyers are dispatched.
