Throughout his life, Hamada demonstrated an excellent glazing technique, using such trademark glazes as temmoku iron glaze, nuka rice-husk ash glaze, and kaki persimmon glaze.

  • Japanese Department Stores: a Failure in Globalisation
    Japanese Department Stores: A Failure in Globalisation Dr. Rika Fujioka Professor Faculty of Business Administration, Osaka University of Economics 2-2-8 Osumi, Higashiyodogawa-ku, Osaka, 533-8533, Japan E-mail: [email protected] Globalisation for Japanese department stores has been far from successful compared with UK grocery retailers such as Tesco and Marks & Spencer; Japanese convenience stores such as Seven-Eleven and Family Mart; and Japanese manufacturers such as Toyota and Sony. However, Japanese department stores have been around since the globalisation of Japanese enterprises began. The managers of department stores carefully considered their overseas market and their international activities. Although they made a decision to adopt this kind of strategy, they did not, until recently, conduct a full-scale globalisation operation. This paper traces the globalisation process that Japanese department stores underwent, and examines the impact that this process had on them. In this study, it will become clear why Japanese department stores failed in their attempts at globalisation, by analysing the significant turning points in their history. The Early Development of Department Stores Department stores were in the vanguard of foreign trade in Japan. After the Meiji Restoration, Japan became more outward-looking in the late 19th century. Some managers at large dry goods stores, the predecessors of department stores, went to Europe and the US in order to obtain training in Western-style store management and learn skills to improve Japanese production systems. By the end of the 19th century, some of these managers had opened overseas branches in Europe with expatriate staff to import Western products and samples of merchandise to Japan, and to trade textile products with European countries.
