Established in 1962
My father started the towel business in 1962, which is now in its 56th year.
This Senshu region has developed as a leader of Japanese towel production, however, we had huge impact from large-scale and cheap importation towels from overseas in the 1990s, and there are now only about 10% of the factories remaining in this region that used to be more than 1,000. In 1997, to overcome this difficult period, I started to sell our towels online, and launched EC site of towel, probably it was the fist EC site specialized in towel in Japan.
Thanks to the sales performance on the internet for more than 20 years, now I have passion to introduce our Senshu towel to not only domestic, but also overseas customers who are aware of good quality products and quality life.
