Our brand is based on…
– Time to market: we bring all the innovations in consumer products developed in East-Asia to European markets at a record pace.
– Poka-Yoke – ポカヨケ: lean manufacturing concept that we apply to our design, manufacturing and merchandising. We make it simple and error proof in all stages.
– Freedom design: freedom to our team of Europe and Asia based designers.
– Elegance in design: choosing within what is available, in our designs we use black and white and a single powerful colour which matches the specific product.
– 东西 – When you put these two characters, East (东) and West (西), together they mean… “thing” or “object”. That is exactly what we do, we bring you the latests consumer goods or things, from East to West, as if you were there.
– Xi 西 and Azuma イースト or 東, reflect our identity from a pan-asian perspective.
– Compliance: deep knowledge of European safety and product specific standards, which reflects in our industrial and graphic designs.
– Black & White and a pinch of colour.
– The brand of brands. Manufacturing for the most well-known brands and leading retailers in the sector.

OUR LOGO
XiaZu
Where does these symbols come from? They come directly from the word XiaZu. When we put the word “XiaZu” at the border of our packagings, the word gets cut in two. The resulting lines and symbols are reorganised in the shape above, creating our logo. Our logo is a direct result from the words East and West, printed on both sides of our packagings. Our logo represents the trip which we want you to take, the one that our products make.
小猪
At the same time time, we want to resemble something common between both cultures, something that, for those less “techie” products, reminds us home not matter where we are. XiaZu as 小猪 , or pigglet, an important animal and huge part of the European and East Asian cultures. Some times represented in white, others in black as an iberico pig. We use this logo specially in our more “homie” products .
