The United States contributed ¥806.3 billion (approximately 14.5%) and other regions ¥217.2 billion (approximately 3.9%); the reported “other regions” figure is not further divided by geography.[20][21]

Outside Japan, the Group describes operations in 27 countries and regions, grouped into the Americas, Europe, East Asia, ASEAN/South Asia, and Oceania. Its reported geographic activities include housing in the U.S.; condominium development mainly in Europe and the U.S., as well as Australia and China; housing development and rental management in Australia and New Zealand; and logistics or industrial-park development in Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, and Malaysia.[2]

In Japan, the company lists Osaka and Tokyo head offices and nine regional offices covering Kita-Nihon, Kita-Kanto, Higashi-Kanto, Minami-Kanto, Hokuriku, Chubu, Chugoku, Shikoku, and Kyushu, alongside 43 branches and nine factories. Consolidated employment was 50,390 as of March 31, 2025; the cited profile does not give an employee breakdown by geography.[27]

For a narrower view of domestic sales, FY2025 non-consolidated condominium sales were reported across Kanto, Kyushu, Hokkaido, Chubu, Kinki, Tohoku, and Chugoku & Shikoku, with Kanto the largest of these regions. This is condominium sales only, not total revenue by Japanese region.[28] [20]

Company history

Daiwa House Industry traces its establishment to March 4, 1947, and its founding to April 5, 1955, when founder Nobuo Ishibashi launched the Pipe House, an early prefabricated building product. The company developed a movable classroom in 1959 and, in 1965, opened a factory dedicated to prefabricated housing and introduced its steel-beam Prefab Shell system.[32]

The company broadened beyond housing over subsequent decades: it established housing developer Daiwa Danchi in 1961, entered resort hotels with the opening of Noto Royal Hotel in 1978, and began a home-center business in 1980. Its international expansion included housing exports and construction in Shanghai in 1983, followed by offices and operations in China and Australia. In 1994 it developed a weldless steel-frame construction method and opened a central research laboratory; after the 1995 Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, it built more than 14,000 emergency temporary homes.[34]

Daiwa House merged with Daiwa Danchi in April 2001. From 2013 onward, acquisitions and subsidiary additions expanded its construction and homebuilding operations in Japan, the United States, and Australia, including Fujita, Stanley-Martin, Rawson Group, and Trumark. The company reported consolidated sales of ¥5 trillion in FY2023, which it described as halfway toward its ¥10 trillion centennial goal.[38] [44]
