Go over 100 years since establishment, to the next 100 years
An strong organization that survives many crises
Our company was founded by Great Grandfather, Kumagoro Ando, on August 2nd, 1917. They said he has lost by the Great Kanto Earthquake happened immediately after the company was established.
But without giving up, he rebuilt the factory and laid the foundation for our company with an indomitable sprit that will not yield to anything.
In the past 100 years, although we encountered such inevitable difficulties as the Great Kanto Earthquake, World War Ⅱ, and recent Bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, the great east Japan earthquake, thanks to customer support
and employ efforts, we have overcome that crisis. I am convinced that it is an organization with full of such powerful energy as weeds that even if stepped on, next buds comes out.
We celebrated the 100th anniversary of our founding on August 2nd, 2017, and we have taken a new step toward the next 100 years. And we will aim for the next 110 years, 150 years and 200 years. Of course I will not be able to
be at the 200th anniversary with my colleagues at that time, but I believe we can pass our thoughts to future colleagues of 100 years ahead, that is properly the important role that we can take.
