Marui and Johoku Shinkin Bank Form Partnership for Local Economy Revitalization

In a significant move towards supporting the local economy and small to medium enterprises (SMEs), Marui Co., Ltd. (headquartered in Nakano, Tokyo, President: Masahiro Aono) has signed a comprehensive partnership agreement with Johoku Shinkin Bank (headquartered in Arakawa, Tokyo, chairman: Kotaro Omae). This agreement, which aims to promote mutual collaboration and support, was officially signed on September 17, 2025.

Marui has long advocated the business philosophy of supporting local passions and encouraging community-based companies and organizations to thrive. Through various initiatives, the company has aimed to create opportunities for these entities to establish a presence in the community, including hosting events and activities that resonate with local customers.

The newly formed partnership will further these efforts by leveraging both companies’ resources to create events that will enliven local spaces and support promotional activities for Johoku Shinkin Bank’s clients. As part of this collaboration, the first event will take place at the second-floor event space,
