Summer vacation

Most of Japanese company takes summer vacation which is called "Obon yasumi". This summer vacation is much shoter than European or Amerian summer vacation. Usually it is about 3 days. Most of Japanese company takes a vacation August 13 to 17th for this year and some companies take August 9 to 17th as one week. Japanese pople like spa which is called "Onsen" in countryside. We stay old Japanese style hotel and take dinner and spa. It gives us relax time. I like "Onsen" very much, however I couldn't go there much since we open retail store. Because I have to take care store during summer vacation season. Many tourists are coming to Kobe. This time our office will be closed August 13 to 17th, however I will be in the office during the time.

Strong Yen

Japanese Yen has been strong against US dollar and Euro since economy crash in U.S.A. It sounds good for Japan, however it is bad thing for Japanese exporter like us. We don't raise price of our product, however automatically price of our product is going up for our customers. We couldn't do anything and it's beyond our control . Actually Japanese economy is not strong as money investor to think. Consumer mind in Japan has been week. So we just wait until exchange rate would be back to normal .

Loose Pearls Pairs on card

We have been exporting Japanese Akoya cultured pearls for over 50 years. We export strands, loose pearls half drilled, 3/4 H.D. etc. and one of the our best exporting item is pairs of LPHD and 3/4 H.D. on card. We have been making pairs since my uncle was in business. At that time, commercial quality of 3/4 cut (big cut) pairs on card was popular and my uncle was exporting ton of them. Time has been changed, now commercial quality of Japanese Akoya pearls are not popular now. We are making mostly medium to fine quality LPHD and 3/4 H.D. pairs on card. We could make 3 to 9mm. pairs, so our customers can promote wide range consumers. Matching of pairs are not easy job. All pearls are little bit different color and luster. Also customers ask us quick job. So it needs experience. Of course I have been matching pairs since I was a child, so I'm also good matching pairs maker.
