Please XYZ Now For The Cycle of Goodness

If you are wearing pants, do me a favor. Bend over and examine your zipper. Make sure the light is good. Put on your reading glasses if you need them. Do you find the letters YKK on your zipper? I did. YKK stands for Yoshida Kogyo Kabushikaisha, a zipper company founded in 1934 by Tadao Yoshida. His company now makes 90 percent of the zippers in the world. The same company makes the machines that make zippers. Yoshida believed in the "Cycle of Goodness" or "No one prospers unless he or she renders benefits to others." He strived to make a high quality zipper; the best zipper that would hold up the life of the product. Such an awesome story, don't you think?
