executive management
Yukio Yoshida

Yukio Yoshida Mr. Yoshida became President & CEO of Mitsui Fudosan America in April of 2011, and has been with Mitsui Fudosan since 1986. Immediately prior to this appointment, he co-led the development of the Tokyo Midtown Project and promoted town management initiatives.

The Tokyo Midtown facility represents Mitsui Fudosan’s most recent “City within a City” redevelopment, boasting a 6 building complex, 6 Million square feet urban oasis comprised of world-class office, retail, hotel, residential units, and museums in addition to other amenities. It also reflects Mitsui’s new business model of incorporating the concept of town-management. The idea of town-management stems from collaborating with neighboring constituents to further increase the overall value of the “town” rather than just focusing on bettering a single property. This serves as the foundation of the company’s core value of “Bringing Enrichment and Comfort to Urban Areas”.

Mr. Yoshida began his career by honing his skills in the development and management of large-scale mixed-use facilities as well as portfolio management and finance. His exposure to the global markets came to fruition during his tenure at Mitsui Fudosan America from 1991-1997. Covering the cities of New York, Washington D.C., and Chicago, Mr. Yoshida was responsible for asset management and financial operations of the US entity.

Upon his return to Tokyo in 1997, Mr. Yoshida played an integral role in developing the 77-acre, mixed-use, Shiodome project in central Tokyo, utilizing capital provided by sovereign wealth funds. After its successful completion, he collaborated with institutional investors such as pension funds, forming private fund vehicles to acquire class-A office properties.

Mr. Yoshida received his Bachelor of Law from Waseda University in Tokyo.
