Our History
Inspired by Expertise: Stepping into a New Era of the Heavy Machinery Industry
Leadway Construction and Mining Machinery Co., Ltd. was founded with a clear vision to be a comprehensive leader in heavy machinery for construction and mining. The company’s strong foundation has been cultivated through years of extensive experience and deep expertise in the heavy machinery industry under the name “Leadway.”
Throughout our history under the “Leadway” name, our team and management have demonstrated a proven track record as distributors of high-quality heavy machinery, particularly for infrastructure construction and mining in the Thai market. This success is not just about selling machines; it is about building a profound understanding of our customers’ true needs in the field, the challenging working conditions, and the key factors in increasing efficiency and reducing costs for large-scale projects.
Strategic Transition for Excellence
The establishment of Leadway Construction and Mining Machinery Co., Ltd. represents an “upgrade” of our business into a broader and deeper dimension. We recognize the immense potential of the large-scale infrastructure construction market and, in particular, the mining sector—a market that demands machines with the highest efficiency, durability, and rapid, systematic after-sales support.
This significant transition involves forming a strong business partnership with a world-class brand to meet these demands. The company has been entrusted as the distributor for HITACHI (Hitachi Construction Machinery), a brand internationally recognized for its advanced technology, reliability, and superior performance, especially in large-scale models designed specifically for mining operations.
