Fast Retailing Snapshot
Since 1963 Fast Retailing has been working to fill the gap in Japan's casual wear market. The company operates about 845 Uniqlo (a combination of the words unique and clothing) stores in Japan and another 180 Uniqlo shops in foreign markets, including China, France, South Korea, the UK and the US. (Uniqlo opened two New York stores in 2011 for a total of 3 in NYC.) Fast Retailing -- often described as the "Gap of Japan" -- sells functional basics (similar to US-based Old Navy or Spain's Zara, but undercutting its competitors more drastically) for men, women, and children. The retail group also operates more than 1,000 other stores under the Theory, Comptoir des Cotonniers, Princess TAM.TAM, and G.U. banners.
