In 1981, Toyota Motor Co., Ltd. announced plans to merge with its sales
entity Toyota Motor Sales Co., Ltd. Since 1950, the two entities existed
as separate companies due to a prerequisite for reconstruction in
postwar Japan. Shoichiro Toyoda presided over Toyota Motor Sales in
preparation for the consummation of the merger that occurred in
1982—Shoichiro then succeeded his uncle Eiji as the President of the
combined organization that then became known as Toyota Motor
Corporation.
