Chapter 8. The Kyoto Hanamachi Enterprises

Kumiko Nishio

Japanese Economy, 2010, vol. 37, issue 4, 103-124

Abstract: The Kyoto hanamachi embodies a business system that has evolved over its 350-year history in ways that confer a competitive edge. The system continues to evolve. Some important differences between the Kyoto hanamachi and ones in Tokyo and Osaka, may explain why the Kyoto hanamachi has been less adversely affected by recent economic challenges.
