Mitsui Chemicals is looking to strengthen its basic materials business to raise earnings amid weaker results this year due to the impact of COVID-19, the Japanese producer’s chief executive Osamu Hashimoto said in his new year’s message.
He added that there were signs of demand picking up in major industries and Mitsui’s performance was on track for recovery.
Mr Hashimoto further said that going forward, the company plans to invest pro-actively to transform its portfolio with a key focus on the healthcare and ICT sectors where more growth is anticipated.
