Nichino history

Nichino Europe Co., Ltd. provides crop protection products that are recognised not only for their targeted performance, but for their flexibility and ease in application - ideal for use with today's environmentally-conscious agricultural practices, such as integrated pest and resistance management.

Nichino Europe Co., Ltd. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Nihon Nohyaku Co., Ltd. based in Cambridge, UK. Our history started in 1992 as a London office which was opened to provide marketing and sales support of Nihon Nohyaku’s proprietary products in Europe. In 2007, the London office was transferred to today’s offices of Nichino Europe Co., Ltd, where we manage the development, registration and distribution of Nihon Nohyaku’s proprietary active ingredients in Europe. In 2013, we started toll formulation of our products in Europe to enable us to deliver our products to the market quickly and effectively.

Nihon Nohyaku Co., Ltd. 'Japan Plant Medicine Company' was established in Osaka Japan in 1928. Its history is deeply intertwined with that of the agrochemical industry in that country.

Since that time, as a corporation protecting food supply and the environment, Nihon Nohyaku has been working to revolutionise technology, in its core area of business involving the manufacture and sale of safe and effective agrochemicals. Furthermore, working from the basis of agrochemical research, development and manufacturing, Nihon Nohyaku has been expanding its business into fields such as fine chemical products, pharmaceuticals and animal health products.
