Messages from the founder Ine Kikkawa, and Takayuki Suzuki the President.
Experts of interpretation, translation,
various temporary staffing and attendant
services in
90 global languages
In recent years, while the need for diverse languages is increasing including Chinese and Korean, not only English, Kikko is capable of responding to approximately 90 global languages. Moreover, it also requires personnel who have knowledge and understanding each society and culture, and international sensibilities like manners, not just simply understanding a foreign language. Kikko as a company which satisfies these two requirements have continued to gain confidence and experience since our establishment in 1979. In the international society of the 21st century which is becoming more diversified than ever, the collective efforts of Kikko provide the international hospitality demanded by people, and link it to the new future.
