Eyeglass Lenses
Lifecare
Overseas markets, excluding Japan, account for nearly
80% of sales in Hoya's eyeglass lenses business.
Demand for eyeglass lenses is growing primarily in
emerging markets, namely, China, India, South America,
Russia and the Middle East, where economic growth is
particularly striking, and Hoya is also striving to capture
opportunities for business expansion in these growth
markets by expanding its operations globally.
At present, Hoya is operating in 52 countries, with an
American assuming the role of a top executive and the
divisional headquarters in Thailand, which is equipped
with leading-edge production facilities, taking command
of global strategies. We will further accelerate our global
expansion by leveraging our network, which enables
speedy delivery to customers from efficiently located
factories around the world that handle operations ranging
from customized processing of premium lenses to mass
production of general-purpose products.
