'Machi-ken' is a health management service provided by H2O Retailing Corporation, which operates department stores and supermarkets.
This event is an 'experiential health promotion event' held on the department store sales floor, where customers can visualize their health status through a 'health check experience session' and receive concrete food ingredient proposals based on the results.
## Background and Significance of the Event
'Machi-ken' provides a place for local residents to gain health awareness under the keywords 'learn while going out', 'make health profitable and fun', and 'approach health casually and loosely'.
By collaborating with the fresh food floor of Hanshin Umeda Main Store, also known as 'Foods of Hanshin', we aim to contribute to the improvement of customers' well-being by providing a one-stop connection from health awareness (measurement) to action (purchase and intake of food ingredients).
## Main Content and Experience Flow
At each booth, we offer free checks using specialized measuring equipment and propose food ingredients based on the results.
##
Capillary measurement 'Automated Capillary Scope'
It scores the condition of the capillaries at the fingertips and visually displays the blood flow condition and blood vessel shape in an easy-to-understand manner.
Based on the measurement results, we recommend vegetables on the spot.
Panel exhibitions will also be available, providing health information even to those who do not wish to be measured.
