Thank you very much for your continued support and cooperation through our washi business.

I am pleased to inform you that, effective February 1, 2026,
I, Daizo Kubota, have been appointed President and Representative Director of the company.

Following his retirement from the position, our former President, Mr. Toru Itoi, will continue to support us by sharing his extensive experience as the company’s founder and as a mentor in washi textile craftsmanship.

Although I am still learning, I am fully committed to sincerely pursuing the potential of washi paper and to sharing its value—especially its contribution to human health—with the global community with our team.

I would be most grateful to bring business outcome with you soon.

Sincerely,

Daizo Kubota
