Prove LiFE LLC (Representative Member Shinichi Yamamoto) signed an agreement with Fukuoka City on May 20, 2026, regarding the provision of meals during disasters.
This agreement aims to establish a system that can quickly provide warm and reassuring meals even if evacuation life is prolonged in the event of large-scale disasters such as earthquakes and flood disasters.
Fukuoka City is the largest city in Kyushu and has characteristics of both urban areas with concentrated populations and coastal areas. In recent years, damage from heavy rains and typhoons has also occurred, and during disasters, widespread evacuation and continuous support are required, making the securing of a stable food provision system important.
Through this agreement, food truck operators registered with our operated food truck platform 'KITCHENCAR’S JAPAN (KITCHENCAR’S JAPAN)' will establish a system to dispatch to evacuation centers and disaster-stricken areas to provide cooked meals.
Through this, we aim to support not only the physical but also the mental well-being of disaster victims through the warmth of food.
In addition, we will strengthen our network with Fukuoka City from normal times by sharing information and conducting training with food truck operators, enabling us to act quickly when a disaster actually occurs.
Incidentally, this agreement is the first agreement with a local government in the Kyushu region for our company.
Prove LiFE LLC will continue to expand the circle of reassurance and smiles through food, rooted in local communities.

About Disaster Prevention Agreements
What is a Disaster Prevention Agreement?
This agreement links businesses and municipalities through the largest food truck portal site in Japan, 'KITCHENCAR’S JAPAN (KITCHENCAR’S JAPAN),' with approximately 4,000 vehicles registered, and establishes a system that can quickly adjust and dispatch the appropriate number and content of food trucks according to the disaster situation and the scale of evacuation centers when a disaster occurs.
Food trucks are equipped with power sources and cooking equipment on the vehicle, allowing them to provide warm meals even in areas where lifelines are unstable.

The trigger was the typhoon damage in Chiba Prefecture in 2019
In 2019, during the typhoon disaster in Chiba Prefecture, which caused a long-term power outage, Prove LiFE LLC, along with our company and cooperative food trucks, went to the disaster-stricken area and implemented cooked meal support. While there were many requests for warm meals, it was also seen that continuous response was difficult with self-support by businesses. This experience reinforced the previously considered idea of systematization and became a trigger to advance the creation of a system to utilize food trucks during normal times in emergencies.
