About

Shimanto Drama is a Japanese company focused on sustainable product development, offering environmentally conscious goods that celebrate the heritage and natural beauty of the 四万十川 region. Founded in 1994 in Japan, Shimanto Drama specializes in sustainable development with a focus on local resources. The company has made strategic pivots to enhance its eco-friendly offerings. In December 2020, Shimanto Drama raised JPY 50 million in Series A funding from investor Ocean Leasing, bringing its total amount raised to JPY 50 million and its current valuation to JPY 200 million.


Shimanto Drama specializes in sustainable product development grounded in the principles of "local," "low-tech," and "low-impact. " Their core offerings include environmentally conscious goods that draw on the unique cultural and natural assets of the 四万十川 region, such as agricultural products, traditional crafts, and local flavors. The company aims to appeal to environmentally conscious consumers and tourism-related businesses, serving domestic markets within Japan and exploring international eco-tourism opportunities. The revenue structure of Shimanto Drama is based on direct-to-consumer sales and partnerships with local retailers and eco-tourism businesses.


Transactions involve the purchase of flagship products that showcase artisanal craftsmanship and sustainable practices, fostering customer engagement through both one-time purchases and ongoing partnerships. The pricing reflects the quality and uniqueness of their products, contributing to the preservation of the 四万十川 area's cultural and environmental integrity. Following the recent Series A funding round in December 2020, Shimanto Drama plans to utilize the JPY 50 million raised to design and launch new products that align with their sustainability ethos. The company aims to expand its market presence beyond Japan, targeting international eco-tourism markets by the end of 2023.


These initiatives are intended to promote local tourism and cultural experiences while enhancing their product offerings.
