In recent years, existing client companies have further strengthened their disability employment initiatives, leading to increased demand for accepting more personnel. Given this background, it became difficult to secure sufficient office space with the existing office alone, leading to the decision to open an additional office to strengthen the acceptance system. ■ Office Overview Canvas Omiya Office Address: 3rd and 5th floors, Malay S.T. Building, 1-62 Yoshikicho, Omiya-ku, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture Address: 4th floor, Yoshikicho Square Building, 2-44-1 Yoshikicho, Omiya-ku, Saitama City, Saitama Prefecture *Located in close proximity to the existing office. ■ Start Date of Operation May 1, 2026 ■ Future Outlook Palette is committed to expanding its acceptance system at each location and improving the quality of support to meet the diverse needs of companies regarding disability employment. Through this additional opening of Canvas Omiya Office, we will continue to provide a reliable satellite office environment for companies and promote job creation rooted in the community. ■ About CRG Group Our group aims to solve the structural labor shortage caused by the declining productive population due to the declining birthrate and aging population.
