While respecting the historical company name “Gotoju”, we decided on the brand name “Gojuu Randoseru” with the desire to create a feeling of softness and warmth. In product development, we aim to create a school bag that children will enjoy carrying for a long time, and we have created an easy-to-use design that takes into account ease of use down to the smallest details. We are particular about the design and color range, and while it has a childish and cute feel, it also has an elegant and mature look so that you can continue to use it and love it even when you grow up. In addition, in order to consistently deliver high-quality school bags, we are committed to exclusively domestically produced products and have established a system for integrated production in our own workshop. Although we are unable to mass-produce, we would like to deliver high-quality school bags that are carefully and individually made by craftsmen to as many children as possible.
