The company owns and licenses numerous apparel brands such as nano universe, Natural Beauty Basic, Margaret Howell, Pearly Gates, Rose Bud, Stussy, Proportion Body Dressing, Free's Mart, Human Woman and Callaway Apparel, which collectively account for more than half of total revenue; it offers casual, streetwear, sports, outdoor and women's clothing through department stores, specialty retail outlets, shopping centers and e-commerce channels. TSI Holdings also provides ancillary services including brand licensing, logistics, store design and management, synthetic resin products, temporary staffing, restaurant operations and business market research. Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, the company operates through its Apparel Related segment, which forms the core of its business, and an Others segment encompassing non-apparel activities. In recent strategic developments, TSI Holdings agreed in July 2025 to acquire a 70% stake in Daytona International Co., Ltd., a lifestyle retailer with approximately 60 stores and annual sales of around ¥40 billion focused on casual, sports and outdoor apparel via an OMO model, with plans to reach 100% ownership following a treasury share repurchase; it further resolved in October 2025 to acquire 100% of Waterfront Co., Ltd., a leading umbrella designer and wholesaler with strong brand recognition in rain and sun products sold across domestic, Chinese and Southeast Asian networks, to complement its apparel portfolio and expand into rainwear synergies. These moves align with the TSI Innovation Program 2027 medium-term plan emphasizing brand portfolio expansion, M&A and entry into new consumer segments.
