Escon's New Land Acquisition in Naha, Okinawa
Escon Co., Ltd., led by CEO Takatoshi Ito and headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, has made an announcement regarding its recent acquisition of a new business site located in Naha City, Okinawa. The decision to secure this land aligns with the company’s strategy to expand its footprint in the hospitality sector, particularly in areas with high tourist and business potential.
The acquired site is strategically situated just a three-minute walk from the Okinawa Urban Monorail (commonly known as Yui Rail) 'Kencho-mae' Station, providing direct access to Naha Airport. This exceptional location is not only easily accessible but also surrounded by some of the largest commercial areas in the region, including the famed 'Kokusai Dori' shopping street, which attracts tourists and locals alike.
As one of the economic hubs of Okinawa, this area sees significant traffic from both tourism and business sectors, making it an optimal place for development. Escon plans to leverage this prime location to develop a hotel catering to the needs of visitors seeking both leisure and business accommodations.

- - Location: 3 Chome-2-4, Kumoji, Naha City, Okinawa, Lot Numbers 14, 15, 16, 17

The project will be carried out in collaboration with Marubeni Urban Development Corporation, a subsidiary of Marubeni Life, and Sogo Housing Co., Ltd. This joint effort underscores Escon's commitment to delivering high-quality hospitality experiences in prime urban locations.
The partners bring a wealth of experience and a robust portfolio in real estate development, further enhancing the project’s potential success.
