Since the founding of the JALUX Group in 1962, we have expanded into diversified businesses in a wide-range of business domains including the retail business, such as airport shops, mail-order sales, and in-flight sales, on the basis of our strong core of aviation-related business.

In 2004, we were listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange 1st Section, and in 2007, we accepted the equity participation of Sojitz Corporation to strengthen our management and financial base and to improve profitability by adding their expertise to our existing business foundation.

Taking advantage of changes in the era as golden opportunities, we aim to further evolve and develop under our motto “Challenge & Change – Yes, we can,” as a unique trading and distribution company on two business fronts, Corporate Sales Business (BtoB) and Retail Business (BtoC).

Since March 2010, we have been doing the business structural reform to pursue greater management efficiency. In addition to that, we will implement strategies to achieve sustainable growth by developing our businesses in the four business categories below.

In the Aviation Business & Service Unit, we will strive to expand our business domains by the Group's collective strength, capability of information gathering as a group of aviation professionals and our know-how accumulated in the various businesses since the founding of the company.

In the Retail, Food & Beverage Unit, we will provide high quality products and services related to “Travel and Lifestyle”, and deliver high quality and fresh food items over our unique retail channels and our diverse networks.

As for expansion of business overseas, we will explore and expand primarily into Asian markets, which are poised for rapid growth, with commodities such as domestic products and perishables, and build our business foundation in this business field.

As the JALUX Group will be celebrating its 50th anniversary in March 2012, we will make determined efforts to increase our corporate value under our Corporate Policy, “Contributing to Tomorrow.”

We would highly appreciate your continued support and look forward to the future patronage of our customers.
