Established Namiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd. in 1918. With the aim of ``creating fountain pens that can be proud of around the world,'' the company changed its name to Pilot Mannen Pen, and in 1989 became the current Pilot Co., Ltd. We boast the top market share for fountain pens in Japan, and are highly rated around the world. In today's world where we tend to rely on overseas production, we continue to be particular about Japanese-made fountain pens.
