Message from the President
The YONDOSHI HOLDINGS Group comprises two main businesses: the Brand Business, which develops, manufactures, and sells “4℃” jewelry and buys and sells pre-owned luxury watches; and the Apparel Business, which engages in apparel OEM/ODM and operates the “Palette” chain of apparel stores.
By leveraging the unique strengths of each business and maintaining a portfolio of businesses with diverse customer bases and market characteristics, we are building a resilient business portfolio that can adapt flexibly to changes in the business environment. Through these efforts, we aim to become a company that delivers high value to all our stakeholders.
Launched in fiscal 2024, our Seventh Mid-Term Management Plan is guided by the theme “Challenge for Future: Toward 2030.” Building on our ability to adapt to changes in the business environment, we are focused on creating value for customers and establishing a foundation for future growth.
In December 2024, we acquired RASIN Co., Ltd., making it a subsidiary in the largest M&A transaction in our Group’s history. In the fiscal year ended February 2026, the second year of our Seventh Mid-Term Management Plan, RASIN began to make a full contribution to the Group’s growth, and the Group achieved its highest sales since transitioning to a holding company structure in 2006. Our Group is now entering a new stage of growth. We will advance growth investments in our existing businesses and investments in human resources, accelerating our efforts to realize our 2030 Vision.
In the Brand Business, the F.D.C. Products Group, which operates primarily under the “4℃” brand, develops merchandising strategies tailored to the needs of customers across its different sales channels. RASIN Co., Ltd. will leverage its expertise in luxury watches and its reputation as a trusted specialist to drive growth at existing stores by expanding its product lineup and strengthening its sales capabilities. It will also invest in advertising to strengthen brand awareness of “GINZA RASIN”.
In the Apparel Business, the Asty Group will leverage its global supply chain and proposal capabilities to strengthen its relationships with business partners and pursue sustainable growth. Age Co., Ltd., which operates the daily fashion brand “Palette,” will work to increase sales at existing stores and improve profitability, while further strengthening its presence in the Kansai region and continuing to open stores in the Kanto region.
We will continue to enhance the strengths of each business and work to increase the corporate value of the Group as a whole. Guided by the principles we have upheld since our founding and committed to sound business management, we will embrace changes in the business environment as opportunities for growth and continue to pursue new challenges.
We sincerely appreciate your continued support in the years to come.
