Representatives from Mitsubishi Corporation – Japan’s largest trading company – are visiting Georgia to explore the country’s investments opportunities.

Mitsubishi Corporation is a global integrated business enterprise that develops and operates businesses across a wide range of industries, including industrial finance, energy, metals, machinery, chemicals, living essentials and environmental business.

Today the Mitsubishi Corporation envoys, led by the corporation’s vice president Hiroshi Miyoshi, met head of Georgia’s National Investment Agency Giorgi Pertaia to discuss investing in Georgia’s energy sector.

The meeting was part of the Japanese delegation’s one-day visit to Georgia.

Mitsubishi Corporation became interested in the post-Soviet country when Georgia’s Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili met head of the Corporation in September 2015.

At the time Garibashvili was involved in the World Economic Forum in China’s major port city Dalian. There the Georgian delegation met representatives of large Chinese companies, as well as Mitsubishi Corporation from Japan.
