Message from the
President

To our shareholders

I would like to thank you for your exceptional support and patronage of the UNITED ARROWS Group.

We have just ended the second year of our medium-term management plan 2023-2025 whose theme is “Providing excitement: connecting with customers widely and deeply,” and are moving into the final year of the plan. Over the past year, we have promoted optimization of the “service,” “products,” and “places” that are our strengths to realize sustainable growth in existing businesses while responding to the external environment, including social changes and climate change, in a flexible manner.

We have also been actively working to take on challenges for the future, including the launch of the new brands “ATTISESSION” and “conte,” the M&A involving BOOT BLACK JAPAN Co., Ltd., which operates shoe shining services, and preparations for the opening of directly　managed stores in mainland China.

In the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, we will further accelerate the measures we have implemented so far and deepen our connections with even more customers. We firmly believe there is still considerable room for growth in our existing businesses through such means as strengthening our connections with existing customers by developing OMO, reducing lost sales opportunities by optimizing inventory allocation, and improving our ability to respond to social trends and climate change.

In addition, new initiatives are expected to expand our customer base inside and outside Japan. Such initiatives include the launch of “NICE WEATHER,” a lifestyle select shop from South Korea, the expansion of “OSOI,” a South Korean bag brand for which we hold the exclusive Japanese sales rights, and the opening of our directly managed store in Shanghai, China.

With the ultimate goal of “setting the standard for lifestyle culture” as stated in our Corporate Philosophy, we aspire to continue being a presence in supporting customers lead enriching lives by providing services based on fashion in the areas of clothing, food, shelter, enjoyment, and knowledge.

We will continue to take on challenges to realize our long-term vision of becoming “UNITED ARROWS, a Beautiful Company,” while maintaining a thorough customer perspective and further refining our strengths.

We sincerely ask you to continue supporting the UNITED ARROWS Group.
