History

[edit]

Tōkyōdō Shuppan was founded as Tōkyōdō in 1890. The company originally operated in the retail market before moving into the book distribution and publishing business. In 1941, it ceased using Nihon Shuppan Haikyū for distribution. In 1964, the company split into Tōkyōdō Shoten (which handled the retail book business) and Tōkyōdō Shuppan (which continued handling the publishing side of the business).
