Yamaha factories are in Japan, Indonesia and China. The Chinese one is the biggest.
Japanese factory on the photo below.
Yamaha is a Japanese business established by Torakusu Yamaha in 1887. The first products of this company were keyboard instruments – organs, and pianos later.
Nowadays, the company produces and provides services in many fields. These are: music, electronics and motors. Despite this, the music field still remains the main and the strongest part of the corporation.
Yamaha offers a wide variety of grands and verticals. From cheap ones through average to professional expensive ones. These instruments will satisfy both, musical beginners, and world famous pianists too.
The wide variety of models provides huge choosing possibilities. Not so many brands can offer the same. You can select an instrument according to your expectations and preferences.
The history of Yamaha starts with building the first Torakusu Yamaha organs in 1887. Three years later, the piano production began. The first piano built in this factory was the first Japanese piano as well. After about ten years, Yamaha stock went into Stock Exchange in Tokyo. In 1954 the company began to produce Hi-Fi audio systems and established Yamaha Music School. One year later, the Yamaha motor branch was created. It is responisble for producing motorcycles. To the end of XX century the consortium expanded production to electric organs, wind instruments, semiconductors and related lifestyle goods. To celebrate one hundred years of activity the company changed its name to Yamaha Corporation.
In 2005 Steinberg Media Technologies was attached to Yamaha. Three years later also Bösendorfer became a part of them. All of the Yamaha factories were moved to Kakegawa in Japan in 2010.
