The World of Knitting: The More You Learn, the More Interesting It Gets
This association is a trade and industry organization composed primarily of businesses engaged in the wholesale of knitwear, and we have been carrying out our activities with the aim of promoting the improvement and development of small and medium-sized enterprises.
Furthermore, as our key initiatives, we have established four pillars—member interaction, collaborative learning, public relations, and public outreach—and are carrying out a variety of projects while collaborating with stakeholders in related industries, with the hope of revitalizing and developing the knitwear industry.
On our association’s website, we feature interviews with Regular Members and conduct in-depth profiles of member companies to promote them to the public. We hope you will support the objectives of our association’s initiatives and encourage you to join our association.
