A company engaged in the manufacture and sale of tin and steel cans. Founded in 1906 in the Owari region, where the textile industry was thriving, the company began its business by manufacturing cans used in the sericulture industry. For over 100 years, it has mainly manufactured preservation cans for dried seaweed and bonito flakes. In recent years, it has focused on candy cans.
