Followed by a downturn in the Japanese economy from the 1990's, and Japanese companies' contingency have become increasingly severe and more. On the other hand, "Brand" that Made in Japan, are still highly regarded in the world. Especially, products that are produced fine-grained to traditional manufacturing, the trend is remarkable.

I suppose that Tabio's factors of growth are the way to strengthen solidarity among local suppliers, and the supply chain as the cost competence.
