en.Wedoany.com Report, Komatsu-Mitsui Maquinarias Perú celebrates 30 years of operations in Peru, solidifying its position as a key technological partner in the country's mining and construction sectors. The company currently employs over 3,000 people, is deeply involved in critical mining operations in Peru, and holds delivery orders scheduled through 2027, projecting sustained growth of 10% to 12% in the coming years.
The company's history dates back to 1996, when it began operations under the name DICSA Perú. In 2000, Mitsui acquired a majority stake, and the business was integrated as Mitsui Maquinarias Perú. The year 2004 marked a turning point for large-scale mining expansion when the company entered the mining sector through the Lagunas Norte project. In 2009, Komatsu Ltd. joined as a shareholder, formally establishing Komatsu-Mitsui Maquinarias Perú, which strengthened support for large-scale operations through direct factory backing and global standards.
"Spending 30 years in Peru means that our journey growing alongside Peruvian mining has been consolidated," said Julio Molina, Executive President of Komatsu-Mitsui Maquinarias Perú. The company has evolved in line with the increasingly demanding pace of the industry, introducing world-class technology and strengthening local capabilities to support the development of the country's major projects. Over the past three decades, the company has introduced technologies that enhance productivity and efficiency in Peruvian mining, such as the P&H 4800XPC cable-electric shovel and 400-ton mining trucks.
Starting with approximately 200 employees and $20 million in sales, the company has grown to over 3,000 employees and annual revenue exceeding $10 billion, with 70% to 75% of its business coming from the mining sector. The company participates in key operations such as Antamina, Cerro Verde, Antapaccay, Las Bambas, Southern Perú, and Quellaveco, maintaining approximately a 68% market share in mining trucks. As mining evolves, the company is introducing electric trucks and efficient equipment to support customers' digitalization and automation processes.
"Looking ahead, our commitment is to continue being a strategic partner for Peruvian mining," added Molina. The company has committed delivery orders scheduled through 2027 and will continue to strengthen its infrastructure, supply chain, and talent pool. This series of developments marks its transformation from an equipment supplier to a full-cycle strategic partner, providing stable support for the long-term development of Peruvian mining.
