Yashio Factory Walk (Iwako & Monteur Factory Tour and Direct-Sales Tour)

About this event

In Yashio City, Saitama Prefecture, the "Factory Walk (Factory Tour & Direct-Sales Store Tour)" visiting creators of familiar everyday products will be held. This year's tour visits two companies: Iwako, known for novelty erasers, and Monteur, well known for sweets. At Iwako, participants can tour the inside of the factory where tiny erasers are produced and get in touch with an aspect of manufacturing. At Monteur, after hearing a company presentation, participants can enjoy choosing from a rich variety of sweets at the direct-sales outlet. This tour presents a valuable opportunity to learn about the background of products casually picked up in daily life and gain a deeper understanding. Participation is free and open to first graders of elementary school and above (elementary students must be accompanied by a guardian). People from outside Yashio City may also participate. Because the entire tour is conducted on foot, wearing comfortable walking shoes is recommended. Applications close as soon as capacity is reached, so early registration is advised.
