History

edit

Maeda became independent from Tobishima Gumi (飛島組) as Maeda Jimusho (前田事務所) in 1919. It became known as Maeda Corporation in 1946. In 1960, the company completed Tagokura Dam, one of the largest dam projects in Japan. In recent years, Maeda engaged in other large-scale public construction projects such as Seikan Tunnel and Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line in Japan.

Maeda is also well known in Hong Kong and has constructed such projects as the Hong Kong International Airport and Kap Shui Mun Bridge.
