NEXSIA Welcomes Yuma Fujii as Public Relations and Support Partner
In recent times, with the resurgence of inbound demand, the vacation rental market has seen a revitalization. However, the expectations for quality service in accommodation facilities have also escalated, with cleaning standards and operational structure playing crucial roles in influencing customer reviews and repeat business.
NEXSIA Co., Ltd., headquartered in Tokyo and led by CEO Kotomi Kawase, has announced the appointment of Fujii Yuma (commonly known as Chan), representative of MARUNAGE House Cleaning, as its new PR and Support Partner. This initiative aims to bolster information dissemination regarding vacation rental operations while utilizing practical insights gained from on-the-ground experience to enhance service quality, thus reinforcing the support system for property owners and accommodation operators.
Background of the Appointment
The post-COVID recovery of inbound demand and diversification of accommodation needs have led to significant growth in the vacation rental market. Nevertheless, managing such rentals requires extensive knowledge in areas such as legal compliance, site management, pricing strategies, guest relations, and cleaning, all demanding continual improvement.
Until now, NEXSIA has supported numerous property owners by managing their vacation rentals and ryokan operations. There has been a rising request from owners for the company to not only manage operations but to also serve as a reliable partner for consultations. To meet this demand, NEXSIA has decided to incorporate the practical perspectives of an industry expert like Fujii into its management and public relations activities to further elevate service quality.

He has been instrumental in enhancing cleaning standards and operational efficiency for over 300 facilities, achieving over 15,000 cleaning jobs annually. His service area spans Osaka, Kyoto, Kobe, Nara, Okayama, and Tokyo.
As an active participant in the vacation rental sector, Fujii continues to communicate practical insights from the viewpoints of owners, operators, and cleaning staff. He actively shares information related to vacation rental operations and cleaning through X, emphasizing the importance of improving overall facility value, not just cleaning quality.

In this new capacity, Fujii will undertake various initiatives:
- - Acting as a spokesperson for NEXSIA, sharing practical information related to company services and vacation rental operations.
- - Expanding awareness via social media and web platforms.
- - Proposing service improvement suggestions from an on-the-ground perspective.
- - Providing advice on operation enhancements and supporting the elevation of cleaning and operational quality.
- - Offering supportive partnership to property owners.
This role extends beyond mere public relations, as Fujii is expected to consistently contribute to service quality enhancements based on his extensive experience.

My goal is to be a supportive presence for property owners while sharing the real-world experiences from the field."
Remarks from Kotomi Kawase, CEO of NEXSIA
