Hello. Everyone! Today I’m going to review the kimono industry, based on the interview with the president of Nishizen. It would be interesting to read. So please enjoy it.
Management philosophy
Nishizen’s president emphasized that the worth of job is to make a profit and return it to the society. Also, in there he attached 3 importance. For example:
1)Employee’s delight
2)Delight of kimono craftsman
3)Customer’s delight
For lasting hundreds and thousands of years, these are the most important elements he needs. I felt that the outlook for kimono industry is bright for human’s connection and also in the traditional Japanese wedding, it could be a strong point for making a strong bond through the human business. The cooperating body of kimono industry makes surprises. Also, customers can trust the business to assign the one chance in the life.
Kimono’s Today and Tomorrow
Nishizen’s president said that the strong point of kimono is “specialty.” For his saying, in Japan, the chance of wearing kimono is decreasing continuously. For that saying, kimono makes Japanese to realize the special day for wearing the traditional costumes and lack of suggestions for the young people are also the problem these days. But the inbound marketing is growing fast in these days for targeting the foreign people. To make the change, the method of advertisement and thinking should be more progressive.
I also feel same as the president that there is no chance to wear kimono in daily life. For my experience, I didn’t have a chance to wear kimono for once. Japanese are wearing kimono almost 3 times in their life, seven-five-three ceremony, coming of age ceremony, and a graduation ceremony, etc. Even in the wedding ceremony, the western style wedding is the mainstream in nowadays. To cope with these problems, we should have to connect the world to share the attractive point of Japanese traditional costume. The attractive points of kimono, my opinion is…
1)Colorful
2)Craftsman’s technique
3)Represents the aesthetic sense
We are trying to make people in the Earth to understanding the kimono and share the attractive point through the traditional Japanese wedding. Not limited for Japanese, you guys can also wear and enjoy the kimono in the special day in your life. I hope YOU can get the chance to wear kimono with your special person.
