■Tie-up planner's comment

Masahiro Sakaue, Manager, Corporate Planning Department, Administration Division (storage and organization advisor)

We hope that everyone, regardless of industry, will listen to this interview between Mr. Fujisawa and Mr. Arakawa, in which Mr. Arakawa talks about his upbringing, his action guidelines and ideas, and the know-how he has cultivated in his diverse background.

We believe that the existence of trunk rooms is still not well known in Japan, and we hope that Mr. Fujisawa was able to see the potential of trunk rooms through this dialogue with Arakawa. We hope that this tie-up feature will encourage people to use trunk rooms.
