Katsutaro Inabata, our founder, was born in Kyoto on October 30, 1862.
In 1877, at age 15, after being chosen by the Kyoto City government, he went to France where he studied dye technology at Lyon Industrial School and Lyon University. While gaining practical experience in factories, he obtained a MS in chemistry, and returned to Japan in 1885. After working for Kyoto prefecture and later Kyoto Textiles, Inc., in 1890 he set up Inabata Dyes Shop to import dyes and chemicals. The business moved to Osaka in 1897, importing flavors, wines, machines and other articles from Europe, especially France, becoming in 1918 the Inabata Trading Shop.
In 1922 he was named Chairman of the Osaka Chamber of Commerce, where he served for 12 years. During that period he was awarded an Imperial Medal of Honor. He founded the Institut Franco-Japonais du Kansai and the Centre Culturel Franco-Japonais, for which France named him to the Léion dีHonneur (Grand-Croix). He died on March 29, 1949. at 88.
Inabata Koryo Co., Ltd.'s first president, Jiro Inabata, was born in Tokyo on March 4, 1888. After graduating from Tokyo University (German law major) in 1913, he was Inabata Trading Shop's vice-president, and chairman of the later corporation plus director of its fragrance section, also President of Japan Dye Manufacturing Co., and a board member of Sumitomo Chemicals. For promoting Japan-France trade he was awarded the Commandeur rank of the Léion d'Honneur, and died at 77 on February 6, 1966. |
