The much-loved retail concept began as a Japanese street vending operation focusing on 100-yen products by Mr. Hirotake Yano in 1972. The simple, yet effective, philosophy of Daiso Japan came when he was working as a salesman, “There were so many people buying, demanding to know the price immediately, that I found it difficult to keep up,” he reminisces. “That’s when I thought of a store where all items will be sold at the same price.” It sounded simple enough, and Mr. Yano decided to turn that idea into reality. As the business flourished, Daiso Japan was founded in 1977 and has not looked back since.
