| A myriad of parts procured in Japan are displayed |
The amount of parts transported for
use in overseas production can vary greatly depending on whether the
parts are procured locally or in Japan. In an effort to further promote
local procurement of parts used in overseas production, the Production
Parts Logistics Division held an exhibition entitled "These things
are still being sent" in conjunction with related design and procurement
departments.
Targeting large volume production models and models with low local
procurement rates, and focusing on actual parts procured in Japan,
the exhibition was held in FY2001 for the benefit of the Corolla produced
in North America and Thailand, and in FY2002 for the Tacoma produced
in North America and the Camry produced in Australia. |
