Itochu Urban Development Expands Senior Housing Operations in Chubu and Kinki Regions
Itochu Urban Development Co., Ltd., headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, led by President Masanao Matsui, has officially completed its second and third senior housing projects: "Rehabilitation Home Granda Toyota City Hall" in Toyota City, Aichi Prefecture, and "Medical Home Granda Harima Himeji" in Himeji City, Hyogo Prefecture. This marks a significant milestone as the company makes its debut in the senior housing sector in the Chubu and Kinki regions.
Both facilities are operated by Benesse Style Care Co., Ltd., also based in Tokyo, and are designed as residential type paid nursing homes. Through these developments, Itochu Urban has utilized a scheme where it constructs and sells the buildings upon completion. Following the first project, "Medical Rehabilitation Home Granda Suzenji" (in Kumamoto City, completed in 2024), this marks the company’s first foray into developing senior housing in the Chubu and Kinki regions.
In response to the rapidly aging population and growing demand for senior-oriented housing, the company initiated its senior housing projects in the fiscal year 2022. Leveraging its extensive experience as a developer, Itochu Urban is committed to advancing senior housing projects in high-demand areas across major cities nationwide.
