The fashion casual market is expanding, as casual wear is becoming more popular in office settings along with strong support for lower-priced brands. In this market, we aim to become the "leading company," successfully competing against major global brands.

The biggest achievement in our previous medium-term management plan (TOP9) was that new brands continued to grow following the success of our leading brands such as LOWRYS FARM and GLOBAL WORK. Each brand aims to be a stronger brand by winning more support from customers.

We will make more investments in order to continue offering products and services beyond customers’ expectations. For example, we plan to expand distribution facilities, develop our Chinese market, improve our products and service quality, and strengthen human resources.
