[5th event participation] Hiroshima Comiket exhibition report
This is a report article on our exhibit at Hiroshima Comiket , which was held on July 30, 2023. This article looks back on our impressions of exhibiting at the event, so if you are interested, please take a look.
1. Impressions of the event
There were many first-time experiences at this event.
The biggest thing was that "repeater customers came to our store for the first time in face-to-face sales."
This was our fifth face-to-face sale, but each time we exhibited in a different location (Tokyo, Osaka, Hiroshima, Ehime), our main focus was to let as many people as possible know about our store.
This was their second time in Hiroshima (first time) and they were meeting repeat customers (first time), so both the store owner and the vendors were delighted.
What's more, he came wearing the item he bought last time🦋
Although we are still a small shop, we are fortunate to have some repeat customers on our online store. Because it is an online store, we cannot see their faces, but we are always preparing shipments with the hope that our customers will like our new products.
But meeting them face to face was a whole different kind of joy, and it made me feel even more that there really are people who love Shinatomy.
We will do our best to increase face-to-face sales and visit various locations, so we appreciate your continued support.
In addition, many items were sold out during this face-to-face sale, which may have caused some inconvenience. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Especially with handmade items, even if I liked a design, I would find myself thinking, "Is there really a demand for this?", and would never be able to make large quantities.
However, at this event, not only some of the hard cases, but also the key chains and earrings that I had put away were all found to be adopted. I also received requests to resell them, so from now on I would like to believe in what I like and make more. Thank you very much🙇♀️
Since handmade items are constantly being replaced, I think face-to-face sales will be the norm, but I will do my best to get as many items as possible onto the mail order site.
If you have any questions or would like to see any items restocked, please feel free to contact us via any of our social media channels.

2. Upcoming Schedule
As for future dates, I am planning on visiting Shikoku again in August ...!
Actually, the application has not been completed yet, so we will notify you again once the application is completed.
In addition to the above
I'll be participating in two events in September .
October is Artism Tokyo ,
We are considering exhibiting at two more events in December as well ...!
The owner is still wondering when he will announce his participation in events several months from now, but as participation in events will likely continue for a while, he will probably make announcements after each event is over.
*As for the September and December editions, I don't think there will be much of a gap between them in terms of schedule, so I think we'll announce them almost at the same time. Don't miss the latest information 👀
3. Conclusion
Thank you for reading this far.
This time I'd like to write about the Hiroshima Comiket that I recently attended.
We will continue to participate in events, so we look forward to meeting you all in various parts of Japan.
That's all for this time.
