Our company's name "Couger" is from "Cougar" that is the feline. The cougar has the following features.
"It excels quick in the agility, and it has an acute sense of smell. Moreover, the eyeball is especially large and has good vision in a large-scale carnivorous feline."
So we hope our company's style also has excellent quickness, agility, business senses and broad outlook.
