Chikuma to Participate in KITAKU WORK WORK EXPO 2025

Chikuma Co., Ltd., based in Chuo-ku, Osaka, is set to exhibit at the "KITAKU WORK WORK EXPO 2025," part of the "Yume Kita Expo 2025" organized by the Osaka City Kita Ward Office. Scheduled to take place on September 20, 2025, at the Umeda Sky Building, this initiative aims to inspire local elementary, middle, and high school students to develop hopes and dreams for their future by experiencing various professions through interactive activities involving companies, schools, and organizations.

A Unique Exhibition

Chikuma’s participation comes at a time when the company is already showcasing innovative uniforms at the ongoing Osaka-Kansai Expo 2025. Attendees will be able to see an array of uniforms worn by staff at various pavilions and exhibits during the expo. This event marks a significant opportunity for the community to engage with the creative aspects of uniform design, examining how these garments serve both functional and aesthetic purposes.

The fusion of costume elements with workwear functionality not only elevates the experience for visitors but also brings joy to the workers. By presenting tangible examples of the uniforms used at Osaka-Kansai Expo 2025, Chikuma aims to enlighten children about the complexities and enjoyment of uniform creation.
