EFFICIENCY

ABICO Group is dedicated to integrating ability with efficiency across all aspects of its operations—a principle that has driven the Group's growth for over 60 years.

With a growing global presence, ABICO Group employs a unique dual-path approach, excelling in both manufacturing technology and strategic investments and acquisitions. The Group's journey began in 1965, when founders Mr. Tong Ching-Hsi and Mr. Tong Ching-Hsiung established Ability Enterprise Co., Ltd., initially specializing in the distribution of Canon office equipment from Japan. In 2000, the company transitioned from distribution to manufacturing, marking a pivotal transformation that redefined the Group's direction.

For six decades, ABICO Group has built lasting partnerships, bridging Japanese technological expertise with Taiwan's manufacturing capabilities and setting a benchmark for Taiwan-Japan collaboration. Staying aligned with its strong ties to Japan, ABICO is advancing into emerging fields such as robotics, electric vehicles, and artificial intelligence. Its manufacturing entities continue to enhance technical expertise, including optical imaging, while its investment entities actively pursue global acquisitions to strengthen synergies. The Group's core strength lies in its commitment to achieving operational excellence, driving continuous improvement and transformation across its business units. This dedication maximizes shared value with all stakeholders.
