Kanemaru Family, which Shin Kanemaru came from, established Yamanashi Kotsu in 1950. Kenji Osano, who was a chief executive operator in Kokusai Kogyo Group, invested into Yamanashi Kotsu and became a parent company of that. He helped Yamanashi Kotsu, which was in difficult to operate a lot of deficit routes because he was born in Yamanashi Prefecture.
