As one of the core companies in the JR Central Group's distribution business, we were established in October 2023 through the merger of Tokai Kiosk Co., Ltd. and JR Central Passengers Co., Ltd., with the aim of providing more sophisticated products and services to customers who use stations and railways, as well as customers who live along the lines.

Through our six businesses - store business, Shinkansen on-board service business, franchise/licensing business, manufacturing business, e-commerce business, and food and beverage business - we aim to provide our travelers and customers living along Shinkansen lines with exciting, positive experiences by delivering on our corporate slogan of "Bringing exciting moments to your travels and daily life."

Specifically, we will improve convenience by consolidating and enlarging the stores inside stations and developing stores where customers can purchase souvenirs, bento boxes, daily necessities, etc. in one stop. In addition to selling unique products from each area along the line, we will also actively work to develop our own products that are unique to each area and strive to improve the product appeal of our stores.

In addition, we will take on challenges such as opening stores outside stations and developing new business areas and services, and for in - car services such as the Shinkansen mobile ordering service, we will strive to provide an even more comfortable on-board space.

Going forward, each and every employee will continue to take on new challenges and put them into practice, so that we can provide our customers with even more thrilling moments than ever before and continue to grow as a company.
