Eravel is an annual information magazine (10 regional editions) that introduces distinctive companies in each region. TSR's unique corporate analysis method ensures a fair and neutral introduction of excellent companies. It also features a variety of unique content such as interview articles and company rankings. Students can use it as a company research tool for job hunting, and business professionals can use it as a source of information for client development.

**Criteria for "Excellent Companies" listed in Eravel:**
Companies are carefully selected from unlisted companies that have achieved a score of 55 points or more in corporate surveys conducted by Tokyo Shoko Research. The "score" is TSR's proprietary index that evaluates target companies from four perspectives: "managerial ability," "growth potential," "stability," and "publicity/general reputation." The total score is positioned within five ranks.
