Established in November of 1990, the Osaka “NOREN” Centennial Association is a group of companies, each with over 100 years of history, who have agreed to contribute to the economic development of Osaka by creating new things while also protecting the history and traditions of Osaka’s merchants.

The association fosters mutual friendship and goodwill among members through activities such as our regularly hosted meetings, which provide a venue for member interaction, and published newsletter “NOREN Kawaraban.” Additionally, events like the “Osaka ‘NOREN’ Centennial Fair,” co-hosted with Osaka City, allow us to contribute to the development of Osaka’s economy by sharing the wisdom of “NOREN” and offering suggestions for future corporate management policies and corporate strategy guidelines.

Looking to the future, our association will continue to grow our history and reputation while preserving, refining, and innovating upon the technologies, products, and know-how left behind by our predecessors. We will work diligently to enhance the brand power of Osaka’s companies and help them achieve even greater success through various information dissemination and business initiatives.
