| In 1915, Ryōsuke Namiki, a mechanical engineer and professor at the Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology, quit his job and founded, with his colleague Masao Wada, a small factory manufacturing gold nibs for fountain pens, which they named Namiki Manufacturing Company. Three years later, Pilot was born.
With its extensive line of writing instruments, Pilot has quickly become one of the best and most popular pen companies on the market.
