Hakuto
was
founded
in
November
1953,
originally
as
a
trading
company
who
deals
with
import
and
re-sale
of
the
crystal
ore.
Our
name
is
a
combination
of
two
Chinese
characters,
"Haku"
and
"To".
"Haku"
comes
from
an
initial
Chinese
character
of
Brazil,
a
major
export
country
of
the
crystal
ore
at
that
time.
"To"
comes
from
an
initial
Chinese
character
of
Tokyo.
By
this
name,
we
expressed
our
passionate
desire
and
ambition
at
that
time
to
become
an
international
trading
company
in
future
through
our
initial
efforts
to
promote
the
business
between
Brazil
and
Japan.
