Scenes from the opening of the Ueno Marui store<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

On opening day, we received a tremendous response, with approximately 100 customers lining up even before the store opened. Furthermore, sales on the first day reached 386% of our projections, resulting in a significantly better start than expected. This result demonstrates the high potential of the "kidult" market.<\/p>\n

Our store is a specialty shop based on the concept of "Kidalto," which is something that adults can also enjoy. Unlike regular Toys"R"Us stores, we target adults (Kidalto) as our main audience and offer a product lineup tailored to their needs and preferences.
\n Furthermore, to ensure that customers enjoy the time spent searching for toys, we have adopted a store layout that encourages them to wander around and make new discoveries. Our aim is to create an exciting shopping environment where customers can find new favorites every time they visit.<\/p>\n
