Business Overview

Export Sales of Japanese Ceramic Tiles

Since our founding, we have been dedicated to the international sales of high-quality Japanese ceramic tiles produced in Toki City and Tajimi City, Gifu Prefecture. We have widely sold these tiles, primarily in Asia, through long-standing partnerships with local companies built on strong trust. We continually propose our products to major developers in these regions.

Since the 1950s, when tile production began in the Tono region of Gifu Prefecture, including Toki City and Tajimi City, these tiles have been exported overseas. Many buildings constructed during that time still stand today, and when renovations or repairs are needed, there is a high demand for the original Japanese tiles used in the initial construction. Meeting this demand is one of our important missions.

Japanese tiles are also known for their small size and diverse range of mosaic tiles. While larger tiles have become more popular globally due to efficiency, there are specific cases where only small mosaic tiles will do. In these situations, Japanese mosaic tiles showcase their strengths.

OEM Production of Miscellaneous Goods and Apparel

As part of our trading operations related to Hong Kong and China, we specialize in custom-made OEM production using manufacturing facilities mainly in China. Our portfolio includes lifestyle goods, stuffed animals, bags, apparel, and toys, primarily used as novelties and gift items, but we also arrange products for general sales.

In this business, we have partnered with local companies that have been working with us for over 20 years, exchanging personnel and continuously meeting customer demands. While our main procurement source is China, we have extended our network to other Asian countries like Taiwan, and recently, we are exploring business opportunities in Africa.

One of our critical tasks is ensuring the safe and reliable transportation of products manufactured abroad to Japan. Leveraging our extensive experience in trade, we pay close attention to smooth import processes. Imported goods can be stored in our warehouse, where we can also perform inspections, additional tasks, and packaging before delivering them nationwide.

Planning and Manufacturing of Character Merchandise

We offer productization proposals and manufacturing services tailored to the needs of customers who own IP (Intellectual Property). The considerations for productization are extensive, and meeting high standards across all aspects is a constant requirement. Handling well-known works requires extreme caution with design assets, ensuring that the product creation process respects and preserves the essence of the original work's world.

In addition to providing proposals based on our extensive product knowledge and ensuring reliable manufacturing management, our company is also flexible in handling detailed customizations during the design review process. Furthermore, as we can perform inspection and packaging in-house, we take full responsibility for the entire process up to the point just before the customer opens the package.

Sales of In-house Planned Products

We also sell products planned in-house. Leveraging our accumulated experience in manufacturing, we collaborate with companies that own attractive IPs to deliver unique products that are distinctively ours.
