What's his thoughts

 

According to Mr. Aoyama a co-founder of Somenova has confidence about the growth of own company since they started using Alibaba. Having a lot more calls from outside of japan recently made him realized that the people in the world are still interested in products which made in Japan. Afterward, He found lots of posts on twitter or Instagram searching with the keywords of “miyako zome” or “call dye all”, and what surprised him most was actually people who bought Somenova products used its tools to try something new like coloring on hair of dolls or put it on while sneakers to make it colorful. He then truly realized that the importance of products are huge for those who love handmade goods.
