CHECK Holdings Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: 3428 Ita, Tagawa City, Fukuoka Prefecture; President & CEO: Yoshito Sasaki) has recently acquired a large site, the "Iizuka Station Front Project Site," located a 4-minute walk from JR Chikuho Main Line "Iizuka" Station and adjacent to Youme Town Iizuka in Iizuka City, Fukuoka Prefecture.
This project is part of an urban planning strategy aimed at solving regional issues by our group, which has steadily built a track record in the Chikuho area based on our foundational real estate business, and utilizing that expertise to expand our operations throughout Fukuoka Prefecture. We position this as an initiative that contributes to improving the value of the station-front area and enhancing urban functions, aligning with the "trinity" of urban development promoted by Iizuka City: "station area development," "corporate attraction," and "human resource development."
[Background of Acquisition]
In Iizuka City, redevelopment around JR Iizuka Station, including a free passage, station plaza, and rotary, is underway. With the commencement of the new station building and the progress of the station area development, the convenience and walkability of the station-front area are expected to further increase in the future. In addition, new housing supplies are progressing around the station, and an expanded demand for commercial and lifestyle convenience functions is anticipated along with an increase in the residential population.
Furthermore, since the opening of Youme Town Iizuka, changes have occurred in the flow of people and daily living routes in the entire area, including around the station. In response to these changes in the urban environment, we decided to acquire this rare large site in front of Iizuka Station. This acquisition is not merely a real estate purchase, but a strategic step looking ahead to the enhancement of future urban functions and the improvement of regional value.
[Project Features]
The "Iizuka Station Front Project Site" acquired this time is located at 50-2 Horiike and 18 other lots in Iizuka City, Fukuoka Prefecture, offering high transportation convenience at about a 4-minute walk from JR Chikuho Main Line "Iizuka" Station. The land area is 5,339.2 square meters (1,615.10 tsubo), and because it is a cohesive site adjacent to Youme Town Iizuka, it is highly rare land that possesses the potential of both a station-front location and commercial agglomeration.
The zoning is commercial, with a building coverage ratio of 80% and a floor-area ratio of 400%, bordering a public road on the east side by approximately 11 meters for a frontage of about 59 meters. Given these conditions, depending on future utilization, this site has the potential to become a receptacle for Iizuka City's new urban functions, such as commercial, business, residential, and lifestyle convenience facilities. From this land acquisition as a starting point, our company aims to implement new value appropriate for the station-front area.
[CHECK Holdings' Initiatives]
Starting from Check Co., Ltd. as its foundational business, CHECK Holdings Co., Ltd. has expanded its business domain into real estate brokerage, rental management, development, construction, welfare, agriculture, and more. Currently comprising 6 group companies and 75 employees, we are developing businesses that contribute to solving regional issues throughout Fukuoka Prefecture, building upon the track record we have accumulated in the Chikuho area.
We view real estate not simply as an asset, but as a "mechanism" to generate employment, residence, lifestyle, and improvements in regional value. This land acquisition is an extension of that philosophy. Anticipating the reorganization of the station front and future regional demand, we will contribute to enhancing regional value not only in Iizuka City and the Chikuho area but throughout Fukuoka Prefecture.
In addition, we are also working on a large-scale industrial site concept of approximately 123,700 tsubo in Iizuka City, "Central Business Park IIZUKA (tentative)". By integrating the formation of an industrial base and the enhancement of urban functions in the station-front area, we plan to advance sustainable urban development that supports both "places to work" and "places to live."
