The city of Sabae in Fukui Prefecture is one of the largest eyewear manufacturing centers in Japan. With Sabae and the adjacent city of Fukui producing 96% of eyewear frames in Japan, the area is recognized, by both themselves and others, as an “eyewear Mecca.”
Located in the eyewear mecca of Sabae and producing more than five million frames a year, CHARMANT (President Masao Miyachi) is one of the leading eyewear frame manufacturers not only in Sabae but also in Japan.
CHARMANT’s products are sold to some 100 countries and well received by many users worldwide.
The leading eyewear company is placing their strategic focus on medical instruments. They develop and manufacture them by making the most of their expertise and know-how acquired through eyewear frame production and the LASERTEC 20, a cutting-edge laser machine from DMG MORI. Today, medical instruments have become a new driving force of their business growth. How did they develop medical instruments into their second core business?
