In video interviews, team members at Asia HQ, HOYA Vision Care
Company, share their views on HOYA’s strategy for the Vision
Care business in the Asia-Pacific region.
Current Status of the Vision Care Business in Asia
HOYA Vision Care Company Asia HQ is in charge of the countries and regions
such as Eastern Asia excluding Japan, Southeast Asia, Oceania, and India.
HOYA Vision Care Company started its business in Asia earlier than other
global players and in addition to a long business history in the region, as our
origin is Japan, we know well Asian faces and Asian eyes.
Taking a long-term perspective, over the past decade, we estimate year-on-
year growth in the eye glass market across Asia-Pacific has been above mid-
single digits, which has been clearly above the rest of the world. With the
market in India expanding in the double-digit range, the prospect for
continuing growth in the Chinese market remains in the high-single digits
overall. The HOYA Vision Care business is growing at a higher rate than the
market growth of other regions. Particularly to China in fiscal 2015 (ended
March 31, 2015), we achieved about 20% sales growth as a result of the
inclusion of Seiko Optical Products.
