Tanaka Kikinzoku Fukuoka Nishitetsu Grand Hotel Store to Renew and Reopen on July 16, 2026 (Thu)

Tanaka Kikinzoku (Tanaka Kikinzoku Retailing Co., Ltd. Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Ginza, President and CEO: Tanaka Kazukazu), a specialist in precious metals, will reopen its directly managed store, "Tanaka Kikinzoku Fukuoka Nishitetsu Grand Hotel Store" (hereinafter referred to as "Fukuoka Nishitetsu Grand Hotel Store"), located in the Tenjin area, the heart of Fukuoka City, on July 16, 2026 (Thu).

The "Fukuoka Nishitetsu Grand Hotel Store" is the only directly managed Tanaka Kikinzoku store in Kyushu, located on the first floor of the Nishitetsu Grand Hotel. It is widely used by customers throughout the Kyushu region, and in recent years, with the rising price of gold and increased interest in real assets, customer traffic and sales have been steadily increasing. To respond to this growing demand and provide customers with a more comfortable and high-quality service, the store will be renovated, with its design and layout renewed under the concept of "providing a high-quality and comfortable customer service space."

<Renovation Highlights>

● Realization of a bright and sophisticated store space with white as the base color

The entire interior will be renovated with a white-based design, enhancing consistency with other Tanaka Kikinzoku stores. An open entrance and window design that makes the interior easily visible from the outside will be adopted, aiming to create a store that is accessible even to first-time visitors.

● Improved comfort and convenience to accommodate increasing customer traffic

Due to its location adjacent to the Nishitetsu Grand Hotel and the growing interest in precious metals, the store has seen an increase in customer visits. Based on this, the reception desk and central counter will be newly established, and the layout will be changed to allow for smooth guidance even during busy periods. The tables and chairs will also be renewed to create a calm space where customers can take their time viewing products.

<Sales Trends at Fukuoka Nishitetsu Grand Hotel Store>

At this store, the crafts category, including pure gold koban (small oval gold pieces) and pure gold ornaments, is highly popular. In particular, 20g and 50g pure gold koban featuring auspicious designs and year numbers have maintained strong sales performance every year. Additionally, the "Pure Gold Senryo Box" containing pure gold koban and the "Pure Gold Shiatsu Stick," a Tanaka Kikinzoku original product, are also well-received. In the jewelry category, products that combine asset value and design, such as pure gold necklaces, coin pendants, and coin bar pendants, are popular.

<Summer Jewelry Collection to be Held at All Directly Managed Stores>

Starting the day after the renovation and reopening, on July 17, 2026 (Fri), the "Summer Jewelry Collection" will be held at all directly managed stores and online shops. The collection will feature jewelry that complements summer attire, including limited-edition coin pendants, proposing new charms of precious metal jewelry to customers.
