Factory in Japan, 1983 - 1992

First of all: There never existed a Factory Japan but licensing deals only.

In 1983 the first Factory records are released in Japan by Tokyo-based label Nippon Columbia, starting in December with Power, Corruption & Lies.
However, the first Durutti Column albums are released by independent label Tokuma Japan, whereas the Factory Benelux records are released by Shinseido Sirius, a label set up in association with Crépuscule Au Japon.

Around 1992, apparently as part of a general restructuring of Factory licensing deals, the remaining Factory catalogue moved to equally Tokyo-based label Polydor K.K.. The label re-releases the Happy Mondays, Joy Division and New Order back-catalogues and then continues with the other releases after Factory's demise in 1992 (not featured here).
