Rooted in Tradition, Committed to The FutureWe hope to deliver the Taste of Japan to the World.
Since our founding in the hometown of Eiichi Shibusawa, Sekine has grown through countless meaningful connections. Inspired by the “Shibusawa spirit,” we have spent over 80 years pioneering high-impact, socially conscious initiatives as a leading manufacturer of pig farming equipment.
A Trusted Partner for Every Pig Farmer
From the postwar era to today, we have supported Japan’s pig industry with deep expertise and hands-on experience. Our mission now is to pass this knowledge on to the next generation of livestock farmers—standing beside each owner to realize their ideal farm and their passion for pig farming.
Beyond Manufacturing—Creating Livable, Custom-Made Pig Farms
We pursue not only technical excellence in our products, but also the design and construction of custom, comfortable pig houses. Looking ahead, we are committed to enabling sustainable pig farming through labor-saving solutions and AI-driven systems—adapted to Japan’s changing demographics and social landscape.
Supporting Safe, Delicious Food in Japan—and Beyond
We aim to contribute to global food self-sufficiency, especially across Asia, by delivering reliable technology and supporting the production of safe, high-quality pork.
Together With the Next Generation
Sekine will continue to create new value and walk alongside the livestock farmers who will shape the future.
Our Strengths
01 A Custom-Built Manufacturer Customized to Every Client
As a manufacturer capable of designing, developing, and producing pig farming equipment in-house, we respond to each customer’s unique needs with customized solutions—crafted with attention to every detail. Our priority is simple: creating products that put customer satisfaction first.
Rather than asking farmers to adapt to pre-packaged systems, we build from scratch to match their vision—delivering equipment and services that truly meet their expectations, even the unspoken ones.
By approaching every aspect of pig farming from the customer’s perspective, we’ve accumulated a wealth of specialized knowledge and practical insight. This expertise—unique to Sekine—drives us to develop and manufacture superior equipment that supports better farming, today and into the future.

02 Venturing into Medical Technologies
Building on decades of expertise in pig farming, Sekine is now collaborating with leading domestic specialists to develop a system for producing and supplying donor pigs suitable for human transplantation.
Research into donor pigs is gaining global attention, and if successful, xenotransplantation could offer life-saving solutions for countless patients in the future.
Guided by the spirit of Eiichi Shibusawa, we remain committed to advancing socially impactful initiatives—creating new value for society and contributing to a more sustainable and compassionate future.

03 A Fresh Challenge Towards International Growth
While continuing to expand our presence in the domestic market, we are also taking on new challenges aimed at global growth. Currently, we are actively engaged in business development in Malaysia, exploring opportunities from multiple angles to validate and refine our approach.
With rising pork consumption driven by population growth, we see strong potential in this emerging market. Just as we have long supported Japanese pig farmers through close relationships and customized solutions, we are now applying Sekine’s technology to deliver optimal equipment suited to local conditions.
Using Malaysia as a strategic foothold, we aim to expand our livestock technologies across Asia and into global markets—bringing the quality and reliability of Japanese pig farming to the world.

04 We Develop New Technologies to Expand the Possibilities of Pig Farming
Sekine is actively promoting circular agriculture through biogas power generation—an energy solution that does not rely on fossil fuels. Our proprietary hybrid model, developed using Sekine’s accumulated expertise, is expected to enhance profitability through renewable energy production.
We are also investing in AI-driven pig farming systems to achieve both high quality and high productivity. By collecting and analyzing operational data, even less experienced workers can perform tasks with confidence, helping to alleviate labor shortages across the industry.
Looking ahead, we remain committed to developing new technologies that anticipate future challenges in pig farming. Our goal is to expand the possibilities of pig farming and contribute to a more sustainable and resilient agricultural future.
