On August 19, DPJ Secretary General Yukio Edano visited Fukui prefecture, and toured facilities owned by Charmant Inc., an eye-glass producer based in Sabae city that produces more than 90% of the spectacle frames sold in Japan.
After listening to an explanation of the eye-glass frame manufacturing process from Charmant Chairman Kaoru Horikawa, Edano visited the showroom, and factory floor. During his visit, Edano said, “It would be wonderful if the name of Sabae could be synonymous with eye-glass frame production, just as Switzerland is with watches,” stating the DPJ would like to cooperate with government to expand local industries under the national growth strategy to invigorate Japan’s regions.
