Opening 10:30 ~ 17:30 

"For the second time this year, we organize the Grand Exhibition of Japanese companies and brands, whose products were a great success at the Salon Maison et Objet in Paris in January.
In recent years, many Japanese brands and companies have tried their luck at the Salon Maison et Objet, and are highly appreciated there, even before they are known in their home territory.
There are many high-quality products that department stores like Mitsukoshi are keen to showcase to customers and visitors. The aim is to showcase the manufacturing techniques, the spirit and the history of these different companies, whose products are beating a path abroad, and to fascinate by sharing the same stage."
