The company and its new factory will contribute to inkjet innovation and visual innovation, two of the four areas of innovation we are targeting under the Epson 25 Corporate Vision.”
Epson uses a vertically-integrated business model involving the manufacturing, sales, service and support of finished products built from the ground up using original inkjet, 3LCD and other technologies. Going forward, Epson will leverage this model to provide products and services that surprise and delight customers around the world.
