Docomo

DOCOMO is Japan’s leading mobile communications company. The number of customers exceeds 50 million in Japan.

docomo mainly provides phone, web (i-mode for mobile phones), and mail (i-mode mails, Short Mails, and SMS) services. Docomo’s parent company is NTT, Japan’s biggest telecommunications companies.

In a strategic decision to put more emphasis on mobile phone operations, docomo was spun off in 1991 as a wholly self-owned subsidiary. The Japanese government is the top shareholder.
