Tokai Holdings <3167> announced on the 1st that its group company Tokai has established a sales base in Kagoshima City, Kagoshima Prefecture.
The company's group has taken a strategy to expand its sales area from Shizuoka and the Kanto region, where its business foundation is strong, to all over Japan for aggressive business expansion.
For nationwide expansion of LP gas business customer base, the company has expanded from the Tohoku Sendai area in the north to the Kyushu Kumamoto area in the south, and entered Matsuyama City, Ehime Prefecture for the first time in the Shikoku area in March last year. Currently, 750,000 customers in 17 prefectures in Tokyo and the Kanto region are using LP gas business.
This time, the group will establish its third sales base in the Kyushu area in Kagoshima City and expand its business base, considering that Kagoshima City has a large number of households and a high penetration rate of LP gas in the area, which is an important location for expanding the business base.
