TOP MESSAGE

The Sanyodo Holdings Group conducts its business with the mission of "Hon to no Deai no Otetsudai" ("Helping you meet books—and what truly matters") and the vision of "Creating a world without boredom." Guided by this mission and vision, we are committed to achieving sustainable growth.

Based on these guiding principles, we strive for long-term growth by providing our customers with a diverse range of products and convenient services while generating sustainable earnings through sound corporate management and strict compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

The business environment surrounding the Group continues to evolve. While digitalization has diversified the ways people spend their leisure time, the reuse market continues to grow steadily, supported by consumers' increasing focus on value-conscious spending amid rising prices and growing interest in a circular economy. Against this backdrop, we are expanding our “Reuse Entertainment Store” retail format, centered on hybrid bookstores that offer both new and used books while providing a broad range of reuse-focused products and services.

Through the “Reuse Entertainment Store” format, we are expanding beyond our traditional bookstore business to develop new reuse-centered businesses, including pre-owned hobby merchandise and large-scale trading card stores equipped with Duel Spaces. By continuously creating new value, enjoyment, and convenience for our customers, we aim to strengthen our competitiveness, achieve sustainable growth, and enhance our corporate value.

We sincerely appreciate your continued support as we continue to take on new challenges and create long-term value for all our stakeholders.

Chief Executive Officer, President
