ARAO started as a hand painted sign supplier, based in Hokkaido, Japan .

In order not to be behind the IT trend, he invested in some machines like a cutting plotter, etc. However, he wanted more.

About two years ago, he decided to purchase a large-format Inkjet printer, he researched a number of printers from various manufacturers, he was still hesitant to buy as he thought they could not survive by doing the same things that others were doing and continued to think that since his son was now grown, they wanted to expand business by being a trend setter.
