About Fujikura Group's brand logo
On April 1, 2011, our group establishment a group brand logo and began using it at major group companies both in Japan and overseas.
The newly establishment brand logo combines the letter F, which has been familiar for a quarter of a century, with Fujikura, which represents Fujikura Group, to create the group's new brand logo.
The history of our brand logo dates back about 100 years ago, in 1910. This was the 25th year since our founding, and the year we reorganized from a general partnership to a joint-stock company. We then establishment a new corporate mark to mark our 100th anniversary in 1985. Now, a quarter century later, we have establishment our current group brand logo.
The world is currently in an unprecedented era of change, with the advancement of globalization. The new brand logo we have establishment reflects our desire to make our group's name known to more customers around the world in these times, to make our valuable products and solutions more accessible to them, and to build deeper trust and lasting partnerships more firmly than ever before.
Coral trees inherited from the company's founding
In 1881, founder Zenpachi Fujikura moved to Kanda Awajicho to start afresh after a series of business failures.
The house was located next to the grounds of the historic Kakujinja Shrine. Fujikura Zenpachi carefully tended the coral tree in the shrine grounds, which was considered a sacred tree at the time, morning and night. Perhaps as a result, business was a success, and the electric wire business he started in 1885 prospered day by day.
After that, the tree was burned twice, during the Great Kanto Earthquake (1923) and the Great Tokyo Air Raid (1945), but each time new shoots sprouted from the burned roots and the tree was revived. This was a great source of support for Fujikura employee who were working hard to rebuild the factory.
Even after Fujikura Zenpachi passed away, the company's Fujikura employee have continued to carefully nurture the plant to this day.
