 Our Challenges

  1. YMWS: “Yatte Minakucha Wakaranai, shikashi Songiri wo tamerauna”

Speed

  1. Never forget patients are waiting.
  2. Be unafraid to buy time.
  3. Set a specific deadline date* at the beginning to pursue the goal without worrying about possible delays.
    *Stay away from “approximately/around” and “early/late”, etc.
  4. If problems or mistakes occur, prevent their expansion first before preventing reoccurrence.

    *3 million for Division Manager; 1 million for Department/Branch Manager/PM/PL

  3. Hear anyone out – never interrupt in the middle.
  4. Start with conclusion/result when explaining/responding.

Die Familienline der Nobelsl

Nobel, der für die Erfindung des Dynamits bekannt ist, hat im Jahre 1870 die Firma Nobel Industries Limited gergründet. Durch von Zukäufen begründete Diversifikation ist daraus das weltweit führende Unternehmen ICI (Imperial Chemical Industries) entstanden – deren Geschäftsbereich, die ICI Nobel dann im Jahre 2002 zur heutigen current Nobel Enterprises Industries Inc. wurde, als sie von Inabata & Co., Ltd. aufgekauft wurde. In dieses Unternehmen wurde, als Teil der Unternehmensgruppe, unsere Firma Nobelpharma Co., Ltd. eingegliedert.  

Stolz darauf, den ehrwürdigen Namen Nobel zu übernehmen, fühlen wir uns verpflichtet der Gesellschaft etwas beizusteuern, indem wir Pharmazeutika und medizinische Geräte anbieten, welche nur wir zur Verfügung stellen können.

In 2020 wurden Übersee auf dem europäischen Kontinten unsere Tochtergesellschaften Plusultra pharma GmbH und Plusultra pharma UK Ltd. in Düsseldorf, Deutschland, und Oxford, Vereinigtes Königreich, gegründet, welche unser Andenken an die Familie Nobel weiterführen.
