Our company began its history in Sagami, where we can admire the serene Pacific Ocean and Mount Fuji. With our headquarters located in Utagawa-cho, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, we started our journey under the name of “Nippon Packaging Kogyo & Service Co., Ltd.”
What we would like to draw your attention to is the inclusion of the word “Service” at the end of our company name. This reflects the principle set forth by our predecessor, which means “always remembering the spirit of service and taking actions that go beyond to satisfy our customers.” This has been the guiding principle throughout our 63 years of history.
As of August 2023 (Reiwa 5th year), Nippack will mark the beginning of its 63rd fiscal year. Looking back, it was in the year 2001 (Heisei 13th year) when I assumed office, and it was the beginning of the 21st century. The Japanese economy was facing deflationary pressures, and we overcame challenges through trial and error, united as a team of employees.
Moving forward, our company’s path is to evolve into a business that focuses on “developing and selling environmentally friendly packaging and tools, and providing services to enhance our customers’ operational efficiency.” We aim to become a comprehensive logistics company, covering manufacturing, packaging, shipping, and transportation.
We sincerely hope to be a “helping hand company” that can solve our customers’ concerns. Thank you for your continued support.
President and CEO, Ryosuke Mori.

The meaning of the hands comes from the concept of Nippack’s primary business, which is packaging, i.e., “wrapping,” but it also simultaneously represents a handshake. This symbolizes Nippack’s attitude towards communication through its future business. The upper diagonal line represents your company’s activity and signifies leap and improvement. The lower part represents your company’s stability, firmly rooted in a strong foundation.
