On the afternoon of November 18, the Miyake-cho Chamber of Commerce and Industry held a monitor experience tour as part of its inbound business, and Suzuki Socks participated in the tour!
This time, four Taiwanese people living in Tokyo visited our company and enjoyed a factory tour, an experience of making original socks, watching a video of the production process and behind-the-scenes of sock making in the theater room, making Christmas ornaments out of sock scraps, shopping at the store, and more…and when they left…they took their socks and Christmas ornaments home with them When they left, they were able to take home the socks and Christmas ornaments they had made and experience a lot 😊
The socks coming out of the knitting machine made us squeal with delight, and we also had a lot of fun at the Rosso workshop, where we sewed the ends of the knitted tube to make the toe part, and had a lot of fun. We were so happy to see them waving to us until they couldn’t see the car when they left.
We hope to continue to make the Miyake-cho experience more exciting as we prepare for the full-scale launch of the tour and the charms of Miyake-cho along with the production of Suzuki socks 🧦✨
Today, students from Nara College of Art, which has a cooperation agreement with Miyake-cho, visited our company. They enjoyed a factory tour at our head office and watched the official Suzuki socks movie “Behind the Sock Making Process and Development Story” in the theater room on the 2nd floor of our main store.
We were delighted to receive many “sock rings,” the waste material that is inevitably produced during the sock-making process. We are sure that the students of Nara University of Arts will come up with new ideas to create a new design!
Nara College of Art has six courses: Western painting, Japanese painting, design, ceramics, weaving and dyeing, and craft design. Thank you very much for your interest in the history and craftsmanship of Suzuki Socks!
