Aim Creates, a company under the Marui Group, is gearing up to make a splash at the upcoming SC BUSINESS FAIR 2026. This event will take place at Pacifico Yokohama and is recognized as Japan’s largest trade exhibition specifically for the shopping center industry. With continuous participation since two years ago, Aim Creates will exhibit alongside Marui Facilities, marking their third successful collaboration.
What is SC BUSINESS FAIR 2026?
The SC BUSINESS FAIR stands out as the sole business exhibition where industry professionals from all corners of the shopping center sector converge. This annual event draws developers, tenant companies, and various support enterprises such as interior design firms, lighting specialists, and consultants. Notably, this exhibition is distinguished by its high satisfaction levels among both exhibitors and visitors, cementing its role as the leading venue for business negotiations in the shopping center domain.
Theme: "ENTERTAINMENT RECEPTION"
For the 2026 showcase, Aim Creates has chosen the theme "ENTERTAINMENT RECEPTION". This innovative theme reflects the company's commitment to adapting to the rapidly changing landscape of modern living spaces, aspiring to create environments that enhance quality of life. Since forming a partnership with Sumitomo Forestry Co., Ltd. in 2019, the firm has focused on sustainability through the versatile use of wood materials.
The future trajectory of Aim Creates lies not only in commercial spaces and offices, but also in expanding into luxurious dining environments, resort hotels, and arena stadiums. These new ventures will prioritize experiential value in design. At the exhibition, attendees will be treated to a stunning presentation featuring mobile art and elaborate natural motifs, envisioning captivating future entertainment spaces.
The exhibition will also see contributions from Abix Co., Ltd. for digital signage and RIN Co. for flower and green decor, further enhancing the vibrant experience.
Showcasing Achievements
Aim Creates has collaborated with several prominent companies to elevate their space designs. One such project was with HUGE at the NEWoMan Takanawa, where they oversaw the design and construction of four distinct culinary establishments grounded in the philosophy of creating spaces that serve as urban assets and resonate with people.
Furthermore, they have played a vital role in developing the Marui Group's "Co-Creation HALL + Co-Creation LOUNGE". This facility is intended as a gathering point for a myriad of individuals and value systems, fostering an environment ripe for innovative business concepts and solutions to societal challenges.
They also delivered a sustainable showroom for Sumitomo Forestry that epitomizes eco-friendly living. This project harmonizes Italian modern design with the warmth of natural materials like walnut to create a sophisticated, salon-like atmosphere that encapsulates brand values throughout the entire space.
