静銀リース has entered into a business partnership with レント, a provider of construction and industrial equipment rentals. By combining financial services with asset management expertise, the companies will integrate the procurement, use and reuse of equipment to promote the growth of regional businesses and resource circularity.
On the same day, 静銀リース held a partnership signing ceremony in Shizuoka, where the two companies shared their respective roles and objectives. The partnership aims to contribute to the growth of regional businesses and resource circularity by managing the process as an integrated whole, from the procurement of equipment, including vehicles, through its use and recycling.
The companies aim to combine 静銀リース's financial services with レント's expertise in asset management and operations, create new business opportunities by leveraging the strengths of rental and leasing, and complement each other's areas of expertise. They will also share information and know-how relating to business operations to support the growth of both companies.
At the partnership signing ceremony, 静銀リース President Wakabayashi Toshinobu (若林 紀伸) said that he wanted the two companies to grow together through initiatives toward carbon neutrality, while レント President Okada Akira (岡田 朗) expressed his desire to build a new business model that makes effective use of resources as finite assets.
The announcement points to a new form of cooperation in the procurement and operation of equipment in regional markets and suggests stronger service offerings spanning both the rental and leasing businesses.
