株式会社中居堂, located in the heart of Sendai's Kokubuncho district, has been a respected name in the Buddhist altar and ceremonial goods industry since its founding in Meiji 5 (1872). Over its 140-year history, the company has garnered immense trust and support, especially for its intricately crafted ceremonial items. Initially focused on funeral supplies, it expanded into the retail of altars and equipment during the post-war period, catering to the needs of various temples in the Tohoku region.

Under the leadership of its third and now fourth generations, 中居堂 has embraced tradition while innovating, including the modern re-interpretation of Buddhist scriptures in contemporary kana. They are dedicated to reviving and restoring ceremonial tools for temples and households alike, notably during crises such as the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. Committed to community service and customer satisfaction, 中居堂 continues to blend age-old craftsmanship with modern needs, ensuring the legacy of Buddhist traditions thrives for future generations.
