Profile

松勘工業株式会社Shingo Ando, ​​President and CEO Born in 1974. After graduating from university, he studied in the United States for two years before joining ASICS.
Involved in shoe planning, development, and marketing. Joined Matsukan Kogyo in 2003. Became president and representative director in 2009.Coming up with ideas and establishing a unique path (I.e."We are trying to create our own unique line as a manufacturer. We have received a lot of support, especially from the police, in building relationships with them.
Let's implement it, get feedback, and make it better and better.
I don't think there are many manufacturers who are concerned about the top players in each prefectural police force."ーThe quickest way to create your own unique style is to ask top players と.Rather than focusing on sales, we discussed the Matsukan brand image.However,We wanted to shift to something that was even easier to use and had more individuality, and so we created our own unique line."I feel like awareness of it has only grown over the past 10 years."The Sen series is a favorite among famous athletesThe secret to missing out on a hit productSalespeople are also developing products by consulting with police officers.I actually practice kendo, so please(I.e."There aren't many. Some people join the company because they love baseball, and some people don't do either kendo or baseball.Matsukan also sells gym clothes for classes at nearby schools. Martial arts, baseballs, and school supplies have become our three main businesses.No, I don't.-What have you noticed since manufacturing products other than martial arts equipment?(I.e.For example, the "Crown" backpack-style armor bag that was released last year. It has been a big hit since last year.At the Koshien Summer Tournament about three years ago, the bags used by baseball players changed from shoulder bags to backpacks.II thought maybe it would be popular in the martial arts industry, so I made a backpack specifically for kendo."Armor bag from the hugely popular "Kanmuri" series.The first thing you make is strong(I.e."This may be true for many industries," but the first place to create something is the strongest.When you create something good and sell well, it will quickly be copied, but the original product will always be the strongest. As you create something, you will find more and more areas for improvement, so you make minor changes from time to time.If you make it and sell it, you can make changes as you like. For example, you can quickly reconfigure fragile parts.We'll be behind the curve. So we have to act quickly. It's a race of speed."So your company's strength is its ability to quickly create something from nothing.We can expect revolutionary product development in the future!
