Lars Malmberg and Matt and Steve Denkin sure didn't. They traveled on behalf of Unicorn Books and Crafts to Japan to meet with suppliers who were headquartered in Na-goyo, a coastal city in the center of Japan. There, they learned that Toyota Group got its start manufacturing automated looms developed by Sakichi Toyoda along with his eldest son Kiich-iro, who later began the produc-tion of cars.
