Press Release Information
Title: Notice Regarding Complete Acquisition of Asahi Sangyo Co., Ltd.
Subtitle:
Company Name:
Industry:
Main Text (first 8000 characters): Restas Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Osaka, Osaka Prefecture; Representative Director: Susumu Oowaki; hereinafter "Restas"), which operates a platform for custom-printed and original goods, has acquired all shares of Asahi Sangyo Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Ota-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Shinichi Amano; hereinafter "Asahi Sangyo"), which operates the EC site "Jambre" for uniforms, safety workwear, and other items, making it a wholly owned subsidiary as of April 24, 2026. Details are as follows:
1. Background and Strategic Significance of the Share Acquisition
Since its establishment in 1963, Asahi Sangyo has built a strong customer base of over 90,000 companies and a supplier network of over 200 companies, serving as a pioneer in catalog mail order for businesses for over 60 years. This M&A will strengthen our position as a platformer in the custom-printed goods market by injecting our strengths in "digital marketing" and "proprietary order management system" into Asahi Sangyo's "solid real assets."
2. Key Synergies from this Integration
This M&A will achieve overwhelming value enhancement based on the following six points:
Promoting Cross-Selling to an Integrated Customer Base:
By integrating the customer bases of both companies, we will establish a cross-selling model that fulfills all customer needs for custom-printed goods, from uniforms to novelty items and office supplies, in a one-stop manner.
Injection of Digital Marketing Know-how:
We will apply our cultivated advanced data analysis expertise to "Jambre" to optimize new customer acquisition costs and accelerate the maximization of LTV (Customer Lifetime Value).
Operational Excellence through Integration of Proprietary Order Management System:
Our internally developed order management system will be introduced into Asahi Sangyo's workflow. Through thorough automation of analog processes, we will shorten lead times, eliminate dependence on individual expertise, and aim to improve operating profit margins.
Increased Added Value through UI/UX Improvement:
By injecting UI/UX that prioritizes customer experience, we will evolve the traditional, complex custom-printed order process into an intuitive one. Improved convenience will further elevate the added value of the products themselves, serving as a differentiator from competitors.
Strengthening Presence as a Custom-Printed Goods Platformer:
Through this integration, we will solidify our position as a leading company in the custom-printed goods platform. Leveraging the scale merits gained, we will continue to provide even greater added value to our customers.
Strengthening the Supplier Network Base:
We will integrate Asahi Sangyo's robust procurement base with our technology. By enabling data linkage with suppliers, we will streamline the entire supply chain, ensuring more stable product supply and cost competitiveness.
3. Future Outlook
We position this M&A as Asahi Sangyo's "second founding" and will fully utilize the management resources of both companies. To embody our mission of "Changing custom printing, changing with custom printing," we will redefine existing business practices with technology and continue aggressive growth investments, striving for the sustained improvement of corporate and shareholder value in the mid to long term.
4. Comments from Representatives of Both Companies
Shinichi Amano, Representative Director and President, Asahi Sangyo Co., Ltd.
Since its establishment 63 years ago, our company has walked alongside business customers nationwide through our catalog mail order and EC site "Jambre." We are confident that by becoming a member of the Restas Group, a leader in the custom-printed goods market, we can pass on the custom-printing technology we have cultivated and provide even greater value. Leveraging the strengths of both companies, we will deliver higher quality and more convenient services to our customers.
