About Me

Tadashi Yanai built and runs Tokyo-listed retail clothing empire Fast Retailing, parent of the Uniqlo chain. Fast Retailing's other brands include Theory, Helmut Lang, J Brand and GU. The company reported net profit of $2.8 billion on revenue of $22 billion for the fiscal year ended August 2025. Flagship brand Uniqlo has nearly 2,500 stores across 25 countries. Yanai wants his company to become the world's largest retailer, which means it would have to surpass H&M and Inditex (parent of Zara).
