HISTORY

• S. SAKAKURA & CO.,LTD was established in Kobe in 1924 by Shozo Sakakura (1894-1990). Prior to this, Shozo's father, Tsunekichi(1867-1934) handled textile fabrics and products in Nagoya with a branch officce in Yokohama until business was interrupted by the 1923 Kanto Earthquake. Shozo re-established the business in Kobe as a buying agent for David Jones Department Store, Australia, and gradually expanded his activities to export of silk and rayon fabrics. After the Second World War, the company quickly resumed business in Kobe in 1949. In 2012, the company moved the head office to the present place in Osaka.
• Currently we:
  Export fabrics of the latest fashion and technology from major mills, weavers and dyers in Japan. Fabrics include polyester, cotton, etc.
  
  Import fabrics and garments. We started importing European high fashion fabrics and garments as early as 1960.
