(Headquarters: Sumiyoshi-ku, Osaka; President: Tomoo Tomita), will release collaboration items with Calbee Inc.'s (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Makoto Ehara; hereinafter Calbee) long-selling product "Jagarico," including one type of vinyl umbrella and two types of folding parasols.

**The keyword is "portable"! What's the reason for the Jagarico and Wpc. collaboration?**
The first-ever collaboration between Jagarico and Wpc. has been realized, with "easily portable" as the common keyword. Calbee's long-selling product "Jagarico" was born in 1995 as a "snack that high school girls can carry in their bags," and "Wpc." creates lightweight and compact folding umbrellas that fit perfectly in a bag.
The lineup includes one type of vinyl umbrella and two types of folding parasols, all featuring Jagarico's familiar characters, father Jagao and mother Rikako of the Jagao family. The simple-looking vinyl umbrella, the **Jagarico Wavy Umbrella**, reproduces Jagarico with color chips in the handle and ferrule. Also, a must-see for fans are the **Shading Jagarico Package Parasol Mini**, which is an umbrella version of the Jagarico package, and the **Shading Jagao Family Embroidery Parasol Mini**, which features a Jagarico-style charm as an accent. The universally loved "Salad" and "Cheese" flavors of Jagarico are stylishly and uniquely finished in a Wpc. fashion.
Wpc.'s parasols use 100% UV cut, 100% light-blocking, and UPF50+* fabric in all colors, effectively blocking the strong summer sun. The black polyurethane coating on the underside of the umbrella suppresses light reflection and reduces glare. Since it's a dual-use umbrella for both sun and rain, you can use it even in sudden rain.
