Kyocera Document Solutions America, Inc. celebrated 50 years in partnership with American businesses, recognising half a century since the organisation began its operations on U.S. soil.
With roots in the U.S. that date back to 1973, Kyocera Document Solutions America, Inc. has grown to become a pioneering enterprise with a community of over 1,300 employees, almost 500 dealer partners, and regional offices and distribution centres located across the U.S.
“This is a historic milestone for our organisation,” said Óscar Sánchez, President & CEO of Kyocera Document Solutions America, Inc. “Over the last 50 years we have earned the reputation as a trusted partner of American businesses, a partner that goes above and beyond to create new business value and drive growth. Our 50th anniversary is the perfect occasion to reflect on our proud past and use it as the foundation for future success.”
The story of Kyocera Document Solutions in the U.S. began with Mita Copystar America, Inc., which was founded on 1 April 1973. The manufacturer of analogue and digital photocopiers and printers moved into its Fairfield, N.J., headquarters in 1992 with fewer than 50 employees located at the new base of operations. This building remains the headquarters for Kyocera Document Solutions America, Inc. today.
In January 2000, Mita Copystar America officially joined Kyocera Corporation as a subsidiary and was renamed Kyocera Mita America, Inc. In April 2012, Kyocera Mita America subsequently changed its name to Kyocera Document Solutions America, Inc.
Seven years later, in 2019, the organisation launched its new brand identity with updated logo and visual identity.
“The diversity of our storied organisation makes me extremely proud to be a part of the Kyocera family – the blend of backgrounds, experience, ideas, knowledge, and technologies means we are ready to further strengthen our position in proven and trusted partnership with American businesses,” concluded Sánchez.
Kyocera Document Solutions America, Inc. plans to commemorate this landmark occasion with celebrations that will highlight the memorable moments, success stories, and partnerships that have endured decades here in the United States.
