Murata Machinery USA, Inc., a subsidiary of Murata Machinery Ltd., Kyoto, Japan, is a world leader in manufacturing automated material-handling systems, machine-tool technology, and textile machinery. Murata markets and sells machine tools to North America, Canada, and Mexico under the Muratec brand.
Murata Machinery and the Muratec brand are significant names in the machine tool industry. Still, the company subsisted mainly on word of mouth in the U.S. With no internal marketing department, Muratec only sporadically marketed around major trade shows. Marketing efforts were disorganized, and the company lacked a go-to-market plan.
Since 1999, Gotham has worked on a project basis with Murata, a Japanese-based leader in machine tools manufacturing, and, in 2010, Murata named Gotham its agency of record. Gotham has applied proactive, data-driven strategic marketing planning and built integrated inbound and outbound marketing campaigns that boosted sales, profits, and awareness of the company’s Muratec brand. In 2013, the Turning business unit of Murata’s Machine Tools Division recorded its best sales in more than 40 years of company history.
