1st anniversary since launch

"KAGUA" went on sale on March 24th of last year, so today marks exactly one year since its launch.
I was thinking about writing something since it's the first anniversary, but I'm so busy every day that I can't think of anything clever to say.

Since it's a business, there have been times when things went as planned and times when things were completely different from what we had expected, but I'm glad that we've been able to survive until today, a year later.

KAGUA started with 15 stores on March 24, 2012, but now it has grown to over 220 stores around the world. This is all thanks to the loyal customers.

Thank you very much.

Recently, we have been fortunate to receive more and more enthusiastic invitations from overseas distributors. It would be presumptuous to say that we are on the same level as Mikkeller or Nogneo, but KAGUA's unique position is highly regarded, and we are sometimes discussed in the same breath as global craft beer brands. It makes me very happy when overseas importers say, "We would like to include KAGUA in our portfolio."

There are still many issues that cannot be resolved overnight, but as our staff increases in the future, we would like to tackle these issues carefully.

To express our gratitude, we are offering special products from Umaji Village and Aridagawa Town, which are associated with KAGUA, as a bonus for purchases during our 1st anniversary online sale . There will also be a double chance, so please do so if you are interested.
