Company Policy

We will contribute to society by conducting business that will enable people to have compassion, live fulfilling lives, and create a comfortable society that will be passed on to future generations.

We will provide products and service of Furoshiki with a potential to give customers' satisfaction and carry on its traditional culture. We will propose new products for your modern lifestyle with our respect the tradition.

At Maruwa Shōgyō, we believe that furoshiki is not just a piece of cloth—it’s a way to wrap the heart. As a wholesaler specializing in the production and distribution of furoshiki, we’ve proudly shared this tradition with customers throughout Japan.

Furoshiki exists because there is something you want to wrap—something you care about. In Japan, the act of wrapping with furoshiki is more than just practical; it’s an expression of thoughtfulness and intention. While wrapping and carrying items with cloth has existed in many cultures around the world, Japan is unique in preserving the emotional and cultural depth behind this act.

As other regions moved away from such customs, Japan kept the spirit of furoshiki alive—a reflection of a deeper cultural value: putting your heart into the way you treat people and things.

This tradition has been passed down through generations, and we believe it’s something that should never be lost. Furoshiki is about connection—it is used when one person thinks of another. It’s not just about utility; it’s about care, empathy, and respect. That’s why furoshiki continues to have meaning in a society where personal relationships still matter.

In today’s world—where communication has become more digital and distant—furoshiki reminds us of the importance of tangible expressions of thoughtfulness. Now, more than ever, we believe that furoshiki has an essential role to play. It encourages us to cherish our relationships and treat both objects and people with care.

As we move forward in the digital age, our mission is not just to preserve the use of furoshiki, but to uphold the spirit behind it—sharing this beautiful tradition with the world as a symbol of meaningful human connection.
