It
is never to late to succeed in business. Funabashiya is a traditional sweets
and dessert shop, which headquarters are located in Kameido a historical
district of Tokyo. Funabashiya is 200 year old but it has the energy of a young
entrepreneurial start-up. In facts it seems that it’s best days are still
ahead. Since the current, 8th generation CEO Masashi Watanabe has taken over a
lot has changed but the company maintained it’ core values while at the same
time becoming rejuvenated and dramatically expanding it’s business. As such,
Funabashiya is a classical example of ‘continuity trough change’ as well as of
the vigour and potential of Japanese family business.
