Citizen electronic calculator

Citizen is a globally recognized Japanese brand with a history dating back to 1918, when it was founded as the Shokosha Watch Research Institute. The name 'Citizen' was chosen with the vision that their products should be cherished by citizens worldwide. While famously known for its watches, the brand expanded into office equipment and electronics through Citizen Business Machines (later becoming Citizen Systems Japan Co., Ltd.) in the 1960s.

This specific electronic calculator is manufactured in the Philippines, where Citizen Group maintains several high-tech manufacturing facilities. The brand is currently managed by Citizen Systems Japan Co., Ltd., a specialized subsidiary of the parent holding company, Citizen Watch Co., Ltd. Over the decades, Citizen has evolved from a local Japanese clockmaker into a diversified electronics conglomerate, maintaining its headquarters in Tokyo while operating a vast global supply chain.
