San Holdings' Core Funeral Company, Koekisha Co., Ltd., Plans to Establish Family Funeral Hall "Koekisha Sakai OnoShiba Kaikan" in June 2026

Koekisha Co., Ltd., the core funeral company subsidiary of San Holdings Co., Ltd. (Tokyo Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Osaka Headquarters: Kita-ku, Osaka City, Osaka; Representative Director and President: Satoshi Harishima; TSE Prime: 9628), which aims to provide total support for safe, secure, and regret-free funerals and life endings anywhere in Japan, announces that it plans to open the new funeral hall "Koekisha Sakai OnoShiba Kaikan" in June 2026.

## Background of the New Hall's Opening

Under the purpose of being a "life ending partner that supports and accompanies the lives of senior citizens and their families," the San Holdings Group has sincerely addressed people's "final moments" as a leading company in the funeral industry. Koekisha Co., Ltd., its core funeral company subsidiary, has built trust through over 10,000 funerals annually since its establishment in 1932, providing services with sincerity and quality. In recent years, values regarding funerals have changed, and the demand for spending quiet, family-centric final moments has significantly increased. In response to these changing times, we are opening "Koekisha Sakai OnoShiba Kaikan" in Sakai City, Osaka. The area around Naka-ku, Sakai City, where the new hall will be established, is an area where old communities and new residential areas coexist. Utilizing the excellent bus access from Nankai Koya Line's "Kitanoda Station," by establishing a base in the highly convenient OnoShiba-cho, we will provide an environment where local residents can feel at ease.

## Features of Koekisha Sakai OnoShiba Kaikan

Koekisha halls are designed specifically for funerals, and based on many years of experience, this ceremony hall allows bereaved families to spend irreplaceable time mourning the deceased more deeply and peacefully.

### Ideal for Family Funerals

The ceremony hall is designed for small-group funerals, such as those involving family, relatives, and close friends. We value "family unity," allowing families to spend precious time with the deceased to their heart's content without worrying about their surroundings.

### Cherishing the Last Moments with the Deceased

Enshrinement will take place in a dedicated room (enshrinement room). We have adopted a glass-paneled enshrinement box, providing a private space where bereaved families can relax as if at home, allowing them to spend their last moments with the deceased slowly and peacefully.

### Supports All Religions

We support all religions, offering funerals according to various religions, sects, non-religious ceremonies, music funerals, and other preferences. Our specialized staff will empathetically consult with you to determine the optimal farewell ceremony for the deceased and their bereaved family.

### Access and Convenience

Approximately a 3-minute walk from "Nakachaya" bus stop on Nankai Bus, after alighting at Nankai Koya Line's "Kitanoda Station." With ample parking, it is easily accessible for relatives coming from both within and outside Sakai City.
