Origin of the Nachi trademark
The Nachi brand name comes from " Kumano Nachi Taisha", the Grand Shrine. It expresses strong entrepreneurial will.
In 1929, the Emperor Showa made a tour of the Kansai district to inspect industries as part of the encouragement of domestic production, and personally inspected a Fujikoshi hacksaw blade that was on display as an example of an outstanding domestic product at the Osaka Prefectural Office. Overjoyed at the honor of entertaining the Emperor's special attention, Kohki Imura decided to name his product "NACHI" after the name of the latest naval cruiser to be made in Japan, the very same vessel that the Emperor was sailing on for his tour.
