●Nihon Service Award（Japan Service Award）
The Nihon Service Award is a scheme that evaluates all service providers in Japan using a common yardstick across a diverse array of services, recognizing services that stand out as a beacon of excellence.
The service industry accounts for about 70% of both GDP and employment in Japan and is an important sector that holds the key to the future growth of the Japanese economy. This scheme awards prizes to outstanding services that we would like other companies in this industry – which will play such a crucial role – to emulate.
