Product Information
The KOKUYO Jibun Techo Biz 2027 in matte black brings the year's planning together in an A5 Slim format, with clean typography and understated colours. Its monthly views, vertical weeks with a 24-hour timeline and Gantt charts let you move from an overview to the details of appointments and projects. MIO PAPER provides a smooth writing surface, while the lay-flat binding makes it easier to use the space close to the spine. The PVC cover includes a pen holder and spaces for cards, keeping the items you use alongside your planner within reach.
