Company PR
With fidelity as our guiding precept for 90 years since the founding, our company has worked to promote prosperity in our local society and to assist our customers in their development.
In recent years, amid the tide of digitalization, we have been thinking about how to combine our strengths and changes and have put the resultant ideas into practice.
One of such actions is personnel training. In the printing division which is a pillar of our business, five employees acquired the certificate of the first grade certified skilled worker (printing) (as of December 2009). In the digital division, two employees acquired the certificate of “cross media expert” who are allowed to make proposals not only on paper but also on diverse media including the Internet, mobile phones, digital signage, TV, radio (as of December 2009). In the creative division, too, the quality of the personnel has been edging up as much as to win the Hiroshima Advertisement and Planning Award many times.
To be chosen by clients, we utilize a variety of human resources to provide one-stop service: in addition to planning, design, printing, we cover cross media presentation and production, small-lot printing by POD, package deals and their delivery.
Hi-vision CM is also our specialty.
