What We’ve
Refined Over a
Century

Deeper and Broader

Founded in 1918 as an importer of tools, we soon transitioned to specializing in fasteners.
As competition intensified in the 1960s, we spent more than a decade transforming ourselves into a specialist in pins.
This is when customers across Japan began recognizing us simply as “Ohkita, the Pin Experts.”
While we continue to deepen our expertise, our portfolio has gradually expanded to include machine keys, space-saving screws, and other specialized components.

Supplying What
You Need—
Exactly When You
Need It

Since the Showa era, same-day shipment has been the norm in Osaka, the hub of Japan’s fastener distribution.
To support our customers—many of whom operate in a fast-paced environment—we have committed ourselves to even faster response times.
Some customers call in an order and arrive at our counter just minutes later.
Even if it’s one single piece, we prepare it immediately so it’s ready the moment they walk in.
This mindset is deeply ingrained in us.

Convenience Is Our
Customer Service

There was a time when fast responses to phone inquiries, printed price lists, and our regular information bulletins were what customers valued most.
Everything we did stemmed from one simple idea: “Make things easier for our customers.”
As times have changed, those roles have shifted to digital platforms.
But our commitment remains the same—we will continue to create services that deliver real convenience.

Systems That
Support
Reliability

We began introducing computers in the late 1960s, and by the late 1970s, our core operations were fully systematized.
Today, automated storage systems and electronic ordering allow a small team to manage over 10,000 inventory items with precision.
Accumulated data also guides strategic inventory management.
Our platform, Ohkita Online, continues to evolve as the interface that brings our internal systems directly to your desk.

Message from the President

TOP MESSAGE

Thank you for visiting our website.
More than 100 years after our founding, I sometimes stop to reflect:
What is the true purpose of our company?
Many companies define this through mission statements or corporate philosophies.
But a simpler thought comes to mind:
If we disappeared, would anyone be inconvenienced?
For high-demand items, there are many manufacturers and plenty of inventory throughout the market.
Our mission is different.
We want to deliver the items that may not be needed in large quantities—but are definitely needed somewhere—
quickly, accurately, and without fail.
We aim to fill the gaps in the industry.
That is our purpose.
Thank you for your continued support.

President
Masami Ohkita
