[Company Interview] Domestic Company (11) Citizen TIC Corporation

Citizen TIC Corporation - Successful Case Study of Manufacturing Reform

"Cherished by citizens and contributing to citizens," Citizen TIC Corporation is a company that, as a pioneer in facility clocks, develops a consistent business from design to manufacturing, sales, and maintenance, centered around three pillars: time, measurement, and information. With a tradition of over 60 years, it is the second oldest in the Citizen Group, and many of the facility clocks seen throughout Japan, including the recently renovated large clocks at JR Hakata Station and Osaka Station, are works of the company, overflowing with design and ideas. Additionally, the company's products, well-known for their sports timing systems, have become indispensable in various sports competitions. The origin of the company name is based on the Latin phrase "Terra Incognita," meaning "unknown land," from Marco Polo's "The Travels of Marco Polo," leading to the term Terra Incognita Clock, which translates to "a clock that no one has ever seen." This time, we visited the headquarters factory of the company, which continues to develop products with technological prowess and creativity.
