Ikeuchi Automotive to Open Its First Himeji Branch in June 2026

Ikeuchi Automotive's New Himeji Location: Expanding Services in Kansai

Ikeuchi Automotive, headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, is proud to announce the grand opening of its Himeji store on June 6, 2026. This will mark the company's first venture into Hyogo Prefecture, and aims to enhance its service network in the Kansai region. As a leading provider of auto body repair and painting services, the new location is set to deliver quick, affordable, and high-quality solutions for car damage to local residents.

With the establishment of the Himeji store, Ikeuchi Automotive aims to significantly improve the convenience for local customers who have previously had to travel long distances for such services. The decision to open in Himeji stems from the heavy reliance on automobiles for daily transportation in the area, making efficient auto repair services crucial for residents.

Competitively Priced, Speedy Repair Services

The Himeji store will operate by eliminating intermediary costs associated with traditional service providers. By having an in-house repair facility, Ikeuchi Automotive can offer prices that are among the most affordable in the region. Moreover, the company aims to minimize the time customers need to leave their vehicles for repairs, providing speedy services tailored to meet the demands of modern mobility.

Ikeuchi Automotive prides itself on its unique operational structure that focuses on substantial cost savings and competitive pricing. Utilizing its proprietary repair factory, the company assures its customers they will receive the lowest possible prices for auto body repair. For minor scratches and dents, the store boasts a remarkably quick turnaround time of just one day, thanks to the expertise of skilled artisans and meticulous project management.

With an impressive record of over 30,496 vehicles repaired annually as of the fiscal year 2025, Ikeuchi has established a reputation for excellent craftsmanship across various car models. The company ensures that each vehicle receives a beautifully uniform finish and high-quality service.

Exclusive Opening Campaign: Special Discount Coupon

To celebrate the grand opening, Ikeuchi Automotive will offer a special discount coupon valid at the Himeji store. Customers can enjoy a 5,000 yen reduction on repair costs exceeding 50,000 yen (including tax) when they book a service during the promotional period from June 6 to June 12, 2026.

Customers can obtain the coupon through the dedicated Himeji store webpage. To redeem the offer, simply show the coupon on a device to staff during the estimate process.
