Monami Co., Ltd (Template:Kse) is a Korean maker of stationery, printer supplies, office supplies, pens and other writing instruments as well as artist materials.[1] Founded in 1960,[2] it continues to hold considerable market share in its home market, South Korea.[3] Recently Monami has made many limited editions.Some of the edition motivated by the Korean poem.
Monami 153
A symbol of daily post-war life in Korea, Monami's basic pen has continuously been on sale since its inception in 1963[4] and is recognizable by nearly everyone in Korea.[5] In 2009 this pen was noted by the government-run Korea Design Foundation as a design that has significantly influenced daily life in Korea.[4] 3.3 billion have been sold, and the figures are still rising.[6]
The pen's designation can be explained by the fact that the 153 was only the third product the company produced and that it originally sold for 15 won,[7] the price of a newspaper or a bus ride at the time.[8]
While the quality and price of this remarkable pen have risen,[9] the design remains unchanged.
The gold-plated version of Monami 153 is also available.[10]
Production bases and facilities
Monami has factories at Ansan, South Korea, and Rayong, Thailand.[2]
