The family-owned company JuHa, is a manufacturer of tools and moulds for plastics processing as well as a producer of plastic parts for the automotive industry. It has around 200 employees in Lüdenscheid and has been a supplier to Yazaki EMEA for decades.

Yazaki is also a family owned, privately held company, and is the third largest Japanese employer in the EMEA region, with over 45,000 employees. It has largely grown organically overseas rather than through acquisition.
