This century-old enterprise is now undergoing a magnificent transformation. It is reported that the Brothers Group was founded in 1908, and the founder Yasui Kenji has an infinite love for all kinds of machinery. The embryonic form of the Brother Group was the 'Yasui Sewing Machine Chamber of Commerce' founded by Yasui Kenyoshi. At that time, Yasui Kenyoshi began to repair and sell sewing machines at his home in Nagoya.

At that time, the most popular sewing machine in the world was the 'singer sewing machine' made in the United States, and there were almost no domestic sewing machines in Japan. Under the guidance of the spirit of 'making industries that need to be imported into industries that can be exportedIn 1928, Yasui Masayoshi and others developed a special sewing machine for sewing straw hats. They named this sewing machine 'Showa San-Type Sewing Machine' and took down the name 'Brother' for their own brand, which reflected the spirit of their brothers' cooperation.

In 1932, household sewing machines were successfully mass-produced, and Brother sewing machines gradually entered the world, leaping ahead of singger sewing machines. The household sewing machines produced by Brother Group have established a good brand image for them, which has also laid the foundation for their diversification policy of being proactive and not afraid of failure after World War II. After World War II, Brother Group's household sewing machines were exported to Europe and the United States, and were favored by consumers. At the same time, they also established consumers' trust in the 'Brother' brand.
