In 1910, Hitachi Ltd was founded in Japan by Mr Namihei Odaira as a repair shop of a mining company. Today, it has been developed into a global international corporation with 330 thousands employees and has an annual sales of USD76 billion. Hitachi has then expanded its business to Hong Kong and established Hitachi (Hong Kong ) Limited on 10 January 1964, mainly responsible for the sales of home appliances.
