Oriental Trading was founded in 1932 in Omaha, Nebraska by Harry Watanabe. It started as a gift shop and expanded to 17 shops in the Midwest. During World War II, with restrictions against imports from Japan, the company shrank back to its Omaha base. Watanabe then bought a ceramic shop which made Kewpie dolls and other ceramic items. In 1954, it resumed its imports from Japan and became a major carnival supplier. In 1956, it launched its first catalog. In 1977, Watanabe's son Terrance Watanabe became president and shifted the company's focus from carnivals to supplying party goods for churches, schools, retailers, and individuals. In 2000, Terrance sold his entire stake in the company to a Los Angeles-based private equity firm and resigned as CEO and President. In 2006, The Carlyle Group bought a 68 percent interest in the company. On August 24, 2010, Oriental Trading filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. During the bankruptcy procedure, the company had plans to cut half of its $1 billion of debt. The company continued to operate normally during the process. On November 2, 2012, Berkshire Hathaway announced they would acquire the company. Oriental Trading acquired MindWare Holdings, Inc. in 2013 and SmileMakers in 2014. MindWare manufacturers and sells toys. SmileMakers sells to the dental and healthcare markets. The company's CEO Sam Taylor appeared in the March 10, 2012, episode of the TV show Undercover Boss. Today, Oriental Trading is a direct merchant of value-priced party supplies, arts and crafts, toys, novelties, and school supplies. It is based in Omaha, Nebraska, and is owned by Berkshire Hathaway.
