Career/Qualifications:
After graduating from university, I joined Suntory Ltd. in Kyoto, where I was in charge of sales; after eight years I returned to my parents’ home to take over the family business and joined my current company. At the same time, I joined the Junior Chamber of Commerce, where I developed local contacts and honed my ability to think outside the box, and after one year as chairman of the board I became president, a position I hold to this day. I was inspired to get involved in the export business by friends I met at the Junior Chamber of Commerce.
Founding Story:
Reportedly, 11 friends from Niigata Prefecture in the north of Japan came out as far as Tokyo to start their own businesses, each in their own field of interest. One of them started making shochu and selling miso, and then began purchasing and selling alcoholic beverages in response to growing demand.
