Santa Company

is a 2014 Japanese anime short film directed by Kenji Itoso through his own studio.

Originally launched as a crowdsourcing campaign on the Japanese site Anipipo, the film aimed at raising ¥1,000,000 for production. The project was unsuccessful, raising only ¥904,001 of the original goal. The project was re-launched on Kickstarter from December 3, 2013. On December 22, 2013, the film met its original goal of $50,000, and managed to raise $72,270 by the end of the campaign.

The project was scheduled to be delivered to backers by Christmas 2014, with the film having been completed in July 2014. Kenji Studio planned to hold a special screening of the film for families who were affected by the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami disaster. The film was screened at multiple film festivals around the world, starting with the Tokyo International Film Festival on October 25, 2014.

An extended version of the short film titled Santa Company: Christmas no Himitsu by Asahi Production premiered in November 29, 2019.
