A Japanese multinational conglomerate company known for manufacturing automobiles, electronics, and heavy industry products. The name is also associated with various corporate divisions and brands.
From Japanese, literally meaning 'three diamonds,' composed of 'mitsu' (three) and 'bishi' (water chestnut, referring to the diamond shape). Founded in 1870 by Yataro Iwasaki, the company adopted this name and logo representing three diamond shapes arranged in a triangular pattern.
The Mitsubishi logo of three red diamonds isn't just abstract design—it literally represents the company name meaning 'three diamonds' and reflects the founder's family crest combined with the three-leaf crest of his former employer. This makes it one of the most literally accurate corporate logos in the world!
