Corporate Logo

What we put into our logo

The previous logo mark is familiar to our employees as well as to our customers and business partners. We have created a new logo that is an adaptation of the previous one, while maintaining the “our history of 80 years in business” and the brand value of “TSUKUBA DAIRY PRODUCTS” that we have built up over the years.

COMPANY NAME

T.K.B.”, which was drawn under the two lines of the previous logo, has been moved out of the circle and changed to “TSUKUBA” so that all people can understand the logo.

Two lines at the foot of the mountain

It represents Lake Kasumigaura, which provides us with the blessings of nature. It also represents our two pledges of “consistent quality control from raw materials to finished products” and “safe and secure manufacturing”.

Two mountains

They represent Mt. Tsukuba, which is a symbol of Ibaraki and has been loved by the people of the region since ancient times. They also represent the company’s intention to be loved as a company rooted in the community like Mt. Tsukuba. The mountains are connected by a single line, and the image of infinity is expressed with a desire for further development.

Color

The color “red,” is the same as one of our core products “Sweetened Condensed Milk”, and represent our devotion with “passion” from manufacturing to delivery to our customers.
