Our company name is derived from the birthplace of the work station, which opened in 1967.
We adopted the place name of "Hiroo", Shibuya-ku, Tokyo where the work place was located.
Also, it's named after the "hero in the industry (HERO)" which was the strong will that our founder Kenji Seki had for the company to turn in in the future.
