Founded in 1887, the Kao Corporation is a major chemical manufacturer\u00a0with locations worldwide and was named one of the “100 Year Businesses”\u00a0currently supporting the Japanese economy. It is the world’s number one\u00a0manufacturer of toiletries while it also produces detergents for household\u00a0and business use, as well as cosmetics and food products. The cosmetics\u00a0division has developed popular items like the “Kao Sofina” range among others. For this ICC event we’re planning a tour of Kao Corporation’s factory. It’s a great opportunity to learn about the manufacturing process of a\u00a0company that deeply effects our everyday lives. There will not only be a general explanation but you’ll also get to try\u00a0cosmetic products, get a skin and hair check and even receive some products. After the tour you can also visit the nearby Kameido Shrine and Tokyo Skytree.\u00a0So if you’re interested in historical Japanese enterprises, chemical products,\u00a0cosmetic products or even if you’d just like to find out more about your\u00a0own skin and hair, then don’t miss this rare opportunity!<\/p>\n
