MISSION

  • We create global brands originating from Japan.

  • We focus on raw materials, ingredients, and manufacturing methods to pursue the quality worthy of becoming a global favorite.

  • We develop products that continuously deliver a sense of surprise each time customers encounter them.

MESSAGE

Our founders have lived abroad and felt a sense of pride when encountering Japan brands overseas. However, witnessing the gradual decline of their brand power, we felt a growing concern that Japan’s true value might not be properly conveyed to the world. This desire to better communicate Japan’s excellence led to the founding of our company, bringing together experts from various industries.

Hospitality, wabi-sabi, miyabi, iki—few countries have such a deep aesthetic sense embedded unconsciously within their culture.
Skillfulness, precision, safety, and trust. Japan, a country of craftsmanship, also possesses the technology to express these values.

We believe brands should be anchors for the next generation.
We aim to deliver beloved items that serve as emotional touchstones around the world.
We will create lifestyle brands that bring joy both to those who create and those who own them—brands that are cherished and passed on to future generations.
