OKINAWA & OHKAWA

Okinawa is the unique southernmost monument of Japan, a prefecture that is an isolated island belonging to a subtropical area. It’s a place overflowing with unique history and culture different from any other area of Japan. People from throughout Japan who have been bewitched by this unique region are gathered here.

We have been doing business in Okinawa with furniture and interior design factories and manufacturers in Asia, Europe, and North America since 1980.
