On most pants that I've worn, the letters YKK are printed on the zipper of the pants. Do these letters mean anything?

YKK is the name of one of the world's largest ZIPPER and fasterner company. It originated in Japan as Yoshida Kogyo Kabushikikaisha, and now has franchise factories in Indonesia and China. The company is quite old. Started in 1934.

What does the "YKK" stand for? Yoshida Kogyo Kabushikikaisha, the name of the Japanese company. The letters were stamped onto products and eventually became the trademark and official name of the company.
