Message from the Representative
Manufacturing that brings smiles
Higuchi Knitting Industry Co., Ltd.
Representative Director
Yuko Nakae
I was born as the third daughter of a company with a long history that was founded in 1933, and I am the seventh generation to run it since my grandfather founded it.
I grew up hearing from a young age that my grandfather was a man who always devoted himself to helping others.
Since our founding in 1933, we have been committed to manufacturing, cherishing the motto of "devoting ourselves to people," which we inherited from our founder's grandfather.
We aim to be a company and people that can make people happy by cherishing our history, and contribute to society by conveying the importance of cherishing things through our manufacturing, and we hope to continue being an environmentally friendly company.
We listen directly to our customers' feedback, create even more advanced products, and hope to alleviate even a little of our customers' foot problems. All of our staff will continue to work together to create products that are focused on comfort.
We would appreciate your continued support and guidance in the future.
