Our Story
Japarcana was founded to bring high-quality local products made by skilled artisans to the world.
When Yoshi studied abroad, he brought an Imabari towel from Japan as a casual gift. To his surprise, people loved its softness and excellent water absorbency and asked for more.
Yoshi realized that making people happy brought him joy, and his local specialty, which he had used since childhood, had the power to delight others.
He decided to deliver local products to people who had never experienced them, spreading happiness to more people.
Japarcana was born from this desire.

CULTURE AND VALUES
About 73% of Japan’s land area is mountainous, and the long, vertical Japanese archipelago is a treasure trove of rich and varied nature.
From cherry blossoms in the spring to fresh greenery, autumn leaves in the fall, and snowy landscapes in the winter, the expressions of nature in each of the four seasons are so beautiful.
From this blessed nature, Japanese local craftmanship has been nourished and beautiful products have been made.
