I decided to handle spun yarn
because I thought
it was something worth doing."

So decided Yosaburo Yagi, the founder, 100 years ago.
He was born and raised in a rice dealer's family.
He carried through "giving oneself entirely to the task
consistently."While pulling together the strength of
everyone,he built up the company's position of today for
its development in the future.
His store was founded in October 1893 with capital of
20,000 yen. The frontage was 2.5 ken (about 4.5 meters)
and the house rent was 8 yen 25 sen per month. This small
store was the first step in our history.
