Expansion of 'Raksul DM Service' to Kansai Region
Chikuta Kubyin Co., Ltd., a part of the Seino Group and based in Nerima, Tokyo, has officially announced the expansion of its direct mail delivery service, 'Raksul DM Service', into the Kansai region. This collaboration with Raksul Co., Ltd. aims to leverage the strengths of both companies to offer a cost-effective solution for businesses needing to send direct mail.
As of today, customers in the Kansai area, including Osaka, Kyoto, Hyogo, Nara, and Shiga, can benefit from this service, which features a special promotional discount of up to 10% off for first-time users until June 30, 2025.
Overview of Raksul DM Service
Launched on March 3, 2025, the 'Raksul DM Service' is designed to facilitate the efficient dispatch of direct mail across the country. This service promises a remarkable price reduction, offering a combined printing and delivery cost of just 56.1 yen per piece. By integrating Chikuta Kubyin's advanced last-mile delivery system in the Tokyo metropolitan area with Raksul's competitive printing capabilities, it has become one of the most affordable options available in the market.
Traditionally, businesses faced multiple headaches by needing to work with separate printing and direct mail outsourcing companies. The 'Raksul DM Service' eliminates these bottlenecks by providing a streamlined, one-stop solution, greatly reducing administrative burdens. Since the rollout of the service, there has been a notable demand from clients for expansion into the Kansai region, prompting a swift acceleration of planned timelines to enhance regional delivery services further.
Beyond the Kansai region, the service will continue to utilize Japan Post's 'Yu-Mail' for deliveries outside defined areas.
Addressing Logistics Challenges
The logistics environment in Japan is increasingly facing difficulties, including a shortage of human resources, challenges in last-mile delivery, and rising postal rates for the first time in 30 years. These factors have led to soaring logistics costs for companies. In response to customer calls for cost-effective solutions, Chikuta Kubyin aligned with Raksul to create the 'Raksul DM Service'. This initiative aims to provide local companies with new capabilities while promoting a sustainable distribution network.
The vision underpinning this service is to enhance convenience and peace of mind for local communities while fostering operational efficiencies for small to medium-sized enterprises. Moving forward, Chikuta Kubyin plans to expand the service to other major cities across Japan. The commitment remains centered on seamlessly integrating Chikuta Kubyin's robust customer base with Raksul's marketing and technological expertise, developing a new logistics framework that meets nationwide direct mail needs.
Special Campaign Launch
As part of this launch, the companies are introducing a limited-time special campaign where new users can sign up until June 30, 2025, to receive discounts on their orders. Even those who do not have immediate direct mail needs are encouraged to sign up because the promotional discounts will apply to orders shipped until the end of June 2026, as long as they qualify under the terms set.
Future Directions
Chikuta Kubyin continues to explore innovative logistics solutions that align with its mission of creating a 'post-in-service' model which enhances delivery efficiencies. The integration of these services will drive the company closer to establishing a regional distribution infrastructure that empowers businesses across Japan.
