Our History

Founded in 1862, SATO KOGYO traces its roots to one of the oldest turnkey contractors in Japan.

Since its humble beginnings, SATO KOGYO has evolved into an international success story - having accomplished a wide spectrum of
building and civil engineering projects of varying nature, magnitude and complexity in Asia, Africa, Middle East, Europe and North America.

In 1972, the firm recognised the growing construction activities in Asia Pacific and spreaded its wings beyond the shores of Japan. Expanding rapidly in response to its success, SATO KOGYO sets up strategic offices in Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Phnom Penh and Yangon to capture the emerging markets.
