Daiwa Zaitaku Corporation Honored with the Konju Honorary Medal

Daiwa Zaitaku Corporation, which focuses on co-creating asset value through activities in the real estate and construction sectors, has recently been awarded the Konju Honorary Medal. This commendation highlights the company’s significant contributions to society, particularly through its donations to Nagahama City in Shiga Prefecture. The award ceremony was held on March 27, 2026, where the Mayor of Nagahama, Mr. Asami, presented the certificate to the company's CEO, Masaki Fujiwara.

Understanding the Konju Honorary Medal

The Konju Honorary Medal is presented to recognize distinguished donations made for the public good and the enhancement of community welfare. It reflects continuous and meaningful social contributions, recognizing the public endeavors of both companies and individuals. In this case, Daiwa Zaitaku's award is based on corporate donations.

Donations and Future Directions

In September 2024, Daiwa Zaitaku plans to acquire 100% of the shares of Sugatani Onsen, a company based in Nagahama City, which operates a historic hot spring inn known as Sugatani Onsen. This establishment, renowned for its traditional charm and rich history, will be rebranded and enhanced using the company's expertise in design and construction to create more value as a hospitality venue.

However, Nagahama City is currently facing a decline in population. Daiwa Zaitaku is not only focused on transforming the ryokan but also has broader ambitions to contribute to regional revitalization. They aim to make tourism a key theme in stimulating local growth, which is why they have undertaken philanthropic activities to support community development.

Utilizing the Donation Funds

The funds from the donations will be utilized to enhance Nagahama City and create opportunities that attract visitors. In particular, these funds will support initiatives that maintain and inherit local historical sites, with a focus on the potential of the famous Odani Castle ruins, a significant heritage site for the city.

Daiwa Zaitaku is committed to enriching the lives of its customers, partners, and employees through its business operations. They believe that by contributing to the growth of Japan and the world, they can continue to foster a prosperous and nurturing environment for all.
