Description of business

Engineer Inc. plans, develops, manufactures and sells primarily professional hand tools as a manufacturer of light electrical work tools used in factories. Since its founding 60 years ago, the company has used trading companies in Japan and overseas to expand sales of more than 1,000 products, such as tweezers, nippers, pliers, drivers and aluminum cases. In recent years, the company has enhanced its planning and development functions, marketing and proposing a number of unique idea tools and convenient tools ahead of its competition. Manufacturing is outsourced in partnership with domestic and overseas subcontractors. Based on the notion of MPDP (marketing, patents (intellectual property rights), design and promotion), recently the company has also been increasing merchandise targeted at professionals to hobbyists, such as "Neji-Saurus" and similar tools that remove screws with stripped heads, and "Combination Scissors" that are capable of cutting through a variety of materials.
