Tommy Crooks, founder of the Edinburgh Natural Skincare Company (ENSC), has returned home from Japan with plans for expansion after a successful trade mission.
The company's connection with the Japanese market started in 2019, when a young Japanese couple bought products at a stall during the Edinburgh International Festival. This developed into a partnership with them in 2020, selling ENSC products into the country.
The partnership has since seen ENSC products in shops across Japan, including Isetan, the Japanese equivalent of Harrods.
