Ryohin Keikaku Co., Ltd. (Toshima ward, Tokyo, Japan / President & Representative Director: Nobuo Domae) that operates MUJI will re-open MUJI Hiroshima Alpark, the largest MUJI store in the world, after expansion and renovation in the end of April.

This store will be the first "Everything for Everyday Life" store in western Japan that offers almost all the items and services of MUJI. It will be relocated on the first and second floor in the Western Annex of a commercial complex named ALPARK, which is located in Nishi-ward of Hiroshima prefecture and is undergoing large-scale renovation (scheduled to reopen in the end of April) by DAIWA HOUSE INDUSTRY CO., LTD. (Osaka city, Osaka, Japan / President, CEO: Keiichi Yoshii). After renovation, MUJI Alpark will have a sales area of approx. 6,100m², 8 times bigger than its previous location in the East Annex of ALPARK.

Since last year, in our medium-term management plan (September 2021 to August 2024), we have stated that one of our missions is to have our stores serve as community centers for local communities and to address local issues. In September last year, we established Hiroshima Business division, which works to create products, services, and stores to help solve local issues in Hiroshima Prefecture.

As part of this effort, MUJI Alpark will introduce the following products and services based on the concept of "promoting healthy life with local residents" in order to solve local issues in Hiroshima Prefecture, where the population is declining and aging rapidly, and there is an urgent need to promote mountainous areas and to utilize local resources.
