SHARE DEPARTMENT: A Thriving Community for Small Businesses in Inagi Nagamine

Nestled beneath the elevated tracks of Inagi Nagamine Station, the SHARE DEPARTMENT has become a beacon for small businesses since its opening three years ago. Celebrating its third anniversary this May, this unique facility now hosts over 20 diverse small enterprises, from art studios to gluten-free confectioneries. It serves as a launchpad for entrepreneurs ranging from novices to those looking to expand their ventures, all within a supportive community environment.

One of the standout features of SHARE DEPARTMENT is its accessibility — open 24 hours a day, it allows entrepreneurs to operate at their convenience. This flexibility caters to the unique needs of each business, ensuring they can thrive on their own terms. In a recent spotlight by the web media outlet Rinzine, several entrepreneurs shared their inspiring stories. Ruri Hayashi from "ART GARDEN STUDIO," Minato Sugiyama from "Additional time," and Emiko Isaka from "Sanshoku no Sumire" emphasized their choices to establish their businesses in Inagi, the support they found, and their future aspirations.

Inagi Nagamine Station is not just a hub for small businesses, but it also plays host to vibrant community events. Seasonal weekend events, such as “Inagi no Tobira” and the “Nambu Line Beer Marche,” have drawn crowds exceeding 10,000 attendees, increasing foot traffic and boosting the recognition of SHARE DEPARTMENT among locals. Each event provides an opportunity for the entrepreneurs to showcase their offerings, further embedding them into the community fabric.

Operating in this environment has enabled SHARE DEPARTMENT to establish itself as a bustling center for small businesses in the last three years.
