Liberty Times Cultural and Creative Center Introduction
Liberty was founded in 1948, initially starting with steel plate wax paper (oil prints). In response to changing times, founder Mr. Wang Songzhen had the foresight to introduce pencil manufacturing technology from Japan, creating Taiwan's first "88 Pencil," which became a timeless legend in the stationery industry. To meet the demands of the stationery market, the company began selling Japanese and Korean brands in Taiwan, gradually transforming to adapt to the new era and leading another peak in the stationery industry. Liberty has long been recognized for its efforts and is a well-known evergreen enterprise. Since 1966, when founder Mr. Wang Songzhen was selected as an honorary manager and received an audience with Vice President Chen Cheng, both Wang himself and the company have continuously received recognition and various awards from different sectors, including the Golden Trademark Gold Medal Award, Best Product Brand Award, Outstanding Brand Management Entrepreneur, Outstanding Enterprise, Outstanding Stationery, and the China Golden Signboard Manufacturer Award. In 2006, it was also recognized by the British Superbrands organization as a Super Brand in Taiwan... and the list goes on, making Mr. Wang a significant figure in Taiwan's economic miracle. Upholding the corporate philosophy of "Integrity and Responsibility, Respect and Prosperity, Joyful Innovation, and Challenging Excellence," the company insists on producing high-quality products and offers a diverse range of choices and customized services that are favored by consumers, continuously contributing to the Taiwanese stationery market. The veteran Taoyuan factory of Liberty transformed in 2019 into the "Liberty Color Pencil Cultural and Creative Center," a first-case reconstruction of the original site in the Guishan Industrial Zone. You are welcome to step into the only remaining pencil manufacturing factory in Taiwan, experience the cultural creativity of color pencil stationery, and enjoy the wonderful experience of dining, shopping, and relaxation!
