Last week, I went to say hello to Milestone's retailers in Shikoku (5 stores).

The route is Tokushima → Kochi → Ehime, and the first stop is ALEX in Tokushima.

This is a general sports store, and the first floor sells a wide variety of outdoor apparel and gear.

And then there's JOIN , a long-established shop in Tokushima. The owner is also a mountain guide and frequently takes customers climbing.

Next up is Kochi's famous restaurant, " Iwa to Yuki ."

They carry products from many outdoor manufacturers, including Patagonia products.

By the way, I have had a long-standing relationship with the owner of this store, and I am very happy that we have been able to have the opportunity to carry our products.

And as soon as you enter the entrance...

And in the sales area

I've been to many different stores and taken photos, and it was great to see that "SOLD OUT" actually means that the products are moving.

Next we headed to Compass in Ehime.

This is a store that sells a wide variety of fashionable apparel, including professional climbing gear.

Products from a number of leading manufacturers were on display.

The last place we visited was Cross Point in Shikokuchuo City, Ehime Prefecture.

In the store, which has a log cabin atmosphere, I had a chance to talk with the owner about future developments and other things.

Thank you to everyone who helped us this time. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Where's your next destination?

to be continued.
