Tohan has supported the maintenance and development of the Japanese publishing industry as a leading company in the distribution of publications that connects nationwide bookstores and publishers since our establishment in 1949.

Sales companies (dealers) connect a large number of publishers and retail stores (e.g. bookstores and convenience stores) in the publishing industry in Japan. Approximately 78,000 new books and 3,300 periodicals are released onto the market every year. Combined with the already published stock, a huge volume of products are in circulation. In this high-mix low-volume market, Tohan is continually striving to streamline distribution and build an efficient sales system.

Literary Agency Services :
We deal with Japanese and overseas publishers by taking advantage of our more than 30 years of experience as a copyright agent. With more than 2,000 copyright agreements every year, we are also actively involved in introducing foreign works to Japanese publishers and dealing with character commercialization agreements.
