On May 19, Globe Tails launched 'Shoumaru', a website creation service exclusively for shopping districts. 'Shoumaru' provides a new concept in website development tailored for shopping streets, allowing them to establish essential communication channels in a completely hands-off and effortless manner. With standard mobile optimization, the sites feature a compact design including store information, news/events, general overview, history, and access maps, making it easy for local residents and visitors to understand.
The service area covers Tokyo, Saitama, Chiba, and Kanagawa. It addresses common challenges faced by many districts, such as the complexity and difficulty of updating information, by offering an easy-to-implement website that anyone without specialized knowledge can manage.
In the Reiwa era, shopping districts are being re-recognized not just as places to shop, but as vital life infrastructure supporting residents, fostering human connections, and acting as the 'face of the region' that preserves local character, culture, and history. The Small and Medium Enterprise Agency also emphasizes the importance of shopping districts as foundations for local employment and community, encouraging improvements in regional value.
Prior to design, Globe Tails conducted interviews with the boards of several shopping districts. They identified common pain points, including the burden of website updates, difficulty in organizing information, responding to mobile-first trends, and the hassle of dealing with external vendors. Based on this feedback, Shoumaru was designed for ease of use, featuring a layout that matches any shopping street and enabling effortless self-updates.
A key feature of Shoumaru is the balance between necessary functionality and ease of adoption. It is a full-service, 'hands-off' solution that includes information organization, structure design, copywriting, photography, and site construction. After launch, it is designed for simple self-maintenance by district personnel. It features a fast deployment timeline of at least one month and reasonable pricing.
The basic 'Hands-Off Pack' is priced at 360,000 JPY (excluding tax). This package includes website creation, copywriting, photography (excluding individual shop photos), manuals, and update lectures to reduce concerns during adoption. Optional services such as maintenance, video production, and leaflet creation are also available tailored to each district's needs.
