Profile
【Overview】
Uniqlo has been extraordinarily successful in growing and maintaining its business in Japan. Over time, it has also become a powerful international player in the apparel industry. At the root of Uniqlo's success lies a well-developed and carefully executed business strategy. Yet, despite Uniqlo's strengths, it has encountered many difficulties in building a viable business in the United States market. In this session, we will examine reasons for Uniqlo's success, consider challenges it faced in the US market, and examine what the company might have done differently. The discussion will be led by the author of the "Uniqlo: Rethinking American Expansion" case, which has been used in numerous business schools in several different countries.
