INTRODUCTION
Toyota Motor Corporation, Japanese Toyota
Jidōsha KK, Japanese parent company of
the Toyota Group. It became the largest
automobile manufacturer in the world for
the first time in 2008, surpassing General
Motors. Many of its about 1,000 subsidiary
companies and affiliates are involved in the
production of automobiles, automobile
parts, and commercial and industrial
vehicles. Headquarters are in Toyota City,
an industrial city east of Nagoya, Japan.

HISTORY
Toyota's origins lie in the Japanese weaving
industry when Sakichi Toyoda invented the
world's first automatic loom and, subsequently,
set up the Toyoda Spinning and Weaving
Company in 1918. His invention reduced defects
and increased yields since a loom stopped and
would not go on producing imperfect fabric
and using up thread after a problem occurred.
This principle of designing equipment to stop
automatically and call attention to problems
immediately (jidoka) remains crucial to the
Toyota Production System today.

HISTORY
The loom impressed a British Company, the Platt Brothers, so much that, in
1929, they bought the production and sales rights for £100,000. Sakichi gave
those proceeds to his son, Kiichiro, to develop automotive technology at
Toyoda. This in turn led to the launch of the Company's first ever passenger
car in 1936, the Model AA, and in 1937, the Toyota Motor Company was born.
Production of Toyota vehicles outside Japan began in 1959 in Brazil and now,
besides its own plants, manufacturing subsidiaries and affiliates in Japan,
Toyota manufactures Toyota and Lexus brand vehicles and components
throughout the world.
