Takubo Kogyosho Begins Exporting Steel Sheds to North America for ShelterLogic Group

Takubo Kogyosho Co., Ltd. (Saijo City, Ehime Prefecture; President: Koji Yano; hereinafter 'our company'), a manufacturer of steel sheds and garages, has begun exporting the 'Shirudo' series of steel storage units for the ShelterLogic Group, a corporate group that develops outdoor storage and shelter products mainly in North America. This product series is our first for the North American market, leveraging the manufacturing technology and quality control in shed-making that our company has cultivated in Japan for many years. The name 'Shirudo' and related trademarks/brand development are managed by the ShelterLogic Group. In recent years, interest in high-quality steel storage units has been growing in North America, driven by the effective use of residential surrounding spaces and increased demand for outdoor storage. Furthermore, the values sought in products are diversifying beyond simple storage performance to include durability, ease of construction, and exterior design. This was achieved by combining the market development by ShelterLogic Group with our manufacturing technology to meet these market needs. Our company will continue to provide valuable products to customers both domestically and internationally through high-quality manufacturing. In overseas markets, we will also strive to supply products that emphasize quality and reliability through collaboration with partner companies. [About ShelterLogic Group] Headquartered in the United States, it is a market leader in the design, manufacture, and sale of DIY steel storage units and other products, with 80 years of history in the field.
