The Daimaru, Inc.
 PROFILE
The Daimaru is struggling to get shoppers to try it on for size. Originally founded as a Japanese drapery shop in 1717, Daimaru is now one of Japan's largest department store operators with 17 upscale stores, primarily in Western Japan, and a few stores located in Australia and Singapore. Its department stores sell name-brand and private-label goods, including its own Trojan menswear. Some locations operate food courts. Daimaru has partnered with US department store chain Nordstrom to sell Nordstrom-brand clothing in its stores. Daimaru and three other large Japanese department store chains are pooling their distribution and home delivery operations in the Toykyo area and plan to expand that plan nationally.
