Delivery Coating Services for Car Dealers

「As part of our collaboration with Toyota new-vehicle dealerships, we are establishing KeePer LABO locations inside their stores. First, on 30 March, “KeePer LABO Yokkaichi Minami” opened on the same premises as Yokkaichi Minami, operated by ネッツトヨタ三重（株）. In addition, on 13 May, “KeePer LABO Ariake” will open as a shop-in-shop within the jointly located Toyota and Lexus dealerships “Ariake” and “Lexus Ariake,” operated by トヨタモビリティ東京（株）.」

「In addition to the expected increase in the number of coating applications at the time of new-vehicle sales, requests for technical training have been increasing so that dealerships can provide regular coating maintenance to help customers keep their vehicles looking good. Examples of collaboration have also begun to emerge, with KeePer LABO locations being established inside dealerships for the “keeping cars clean” business, giving us a strong sense of the potential for KeePer's expansion.」

「We will also actively launch nationwide sales activities to promote the “on-site application (delivery)” service, in which KeePer LABO staff visit dealerships directly to apply the coating.」

「Adoption has progressed across all dealerships operated by subsidiaries of VTホールディングス株式会社, including 株式会社ホンダカーズ東海, 長野日産株式会社 and 株式会社モトーレン三河, following the capital and business alliance formed last September, and the results have begun to emerge steadily this fiscal year.」

「In addition, our expansion into the automotive industry, including automakers and car dealerships, is progressing steadily through technical training for dealerships, an area of strength for our company, the in-house adoption of KeePer, and the delivery service, in which our employees, who are first-grade coating technicians, visit dealerships to provide coating services. Our capital and business alliance with VTホールディングス株式会社 has also led to steady adoption of KeePer by its dealership subsidiaries.」

「This fiscal year, we are devoting the full strength of the company to expanding into the automotive industry, including automakers and car dealerships. Our employees, who are first-grade coating technicians, visit car dealerships to provide coating services, mainly for new vehicles, while we also provide dealerships with technical training, an area of strength for our company, to promote in-house adoption. In addition, our capital and business alliance with VTホールディングス株式会社 has accelerated our expansion into the automotive industry. The number of adopting dealerships is increasing steadily, and the results have begun to emerge clearly since the third quarter.」

「Expansion into the automotive industry is also progressing. Our employees, who are first-grade KeePer Coating technicians, began visiting car dealerships to provide coating services, mainly for new vehicles, through the delivery service, and adoption is progressing steadily.」

「The delivery service, involving visits to car dealerships to provide coating services, is expected to expand to a significant number of stores in the second half of the fiscal year ending June 2020. At the same time, we will promote the in-house adoption of KeePer Coating by dealerships through this initiative.」

「In addition to activities to have KeePer adopted as an OEM product by automakers, the delivery service, which involves visiting car dealerships to provide coating services, has also been progressing smoothly.」
