History of Overseas Expansion
Strengthened Trading Operations from the Early Showa Period.
Expanding the Commercial Area to the Asian Region
Based on the belief that "the world is one," the company expanded its business area to Asian regions, including Manchuria, China, where many Japanese once emigrated, as well as Singapore and India, which was a British colony. After the war, the company began manufacturing barber chairs, and there is still a photograph of Indian buyers visiting the company for business negotiations in 1948.
Establishing a Local Subsidiary in the USA
to the World as a Foothold
In 1956, we established a local subsidiary, TAKARA COMPANY NY INC., in New York, USA, and began a full-scale overseas expansion. We then established local subsidiaries in the UK, Canada, France, Germany, and Brazil, and since the 2000s we have focused on the Asian region, including South Korea, Taiwan, China, Vietnam, and Singapore.
New Overseas Industry Menu
a Bridge to Reach Japan
In 1970, in conjunction with the Japan World Expo (Osaka Expo), we held Japan's first international barber and beauty championship. In 1973, we introduced Germany's "aesthetics that use equipment" and began importing and selling professional skincare products. In recent years, we have also begun providing soft gel nail products from South Africa in Japan, which has led to an increase in nail salons.
Supporting Industry at Home and Abroad
In 1999, we held the first “TWBC” professional beauty festival to introduce new overseas hairdressing and beauty techniques to Japan. We also sponsor the world hairdressing and beauty technique championship "OMC" and support Japanese athletes to participate in the competition.
