Customer retention through a one-stop service for children with HULIC and KONAMI SPORTS

「“こどもでぱーと,” which we are jointly developing with Hulic Co.,Ltd. as a new hub for child-rearing, is operating smoothly. “こどもでぱーと Nakano” and “こどもでぱーと Tama-Plaza,” which opened in April 2025, are performing well. We also opened “こどもでぱーと Jiyugaoka” in September 2026 and are making steady progress with plans for further openings.」

「During the consolidated fiscal year, we simultaneously opened “こどもでぱーと Nakano” in Tokyo and “こどもでぱーと Tama-Plaza” in Kanagawa in April 2025.」

「The Company, its parent Hulic Co.,Ltd., and Konami Sports Co., Ltd. are jointly developing “Kodomo Depart” as a new hub for child-rearing and education, with a single building housing TOMAS, Shingakai and other child-education content, as well as a children’s clinic and a parent-child café.

「Based on the business alliance agreement executed by the 3 companies, we plan to jointly develop and roll out a one-stop service business for children within a single building. Providing one-stop services in the same building will eliminate the inconvenience and concerns parents face regarding transportation and travel, while enabling children to receive multiple services tailored to their individual characteristics in one location. We will also develop a new customer-retention strategy through a one-stop service that customers can attend continuously from age 1 through adulthood, by expanding existing brands, jointly developing services for members and mutually leveraging each company's expertise.」
