HIS Announces Sponsorship for the 2027 International Horticultural Expo (GREEN×EXPO 2027)

HIS Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku, Tokyo; hereafter 'HIS') announced its sponsorship as a Platinum Partner for the '2027 International Horticultural Expo (GREEN×EXPO 2027),' to be held in Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture (at the former Kamiseya Communication Facility) in 2027.

While the 1990 Osaka 'Flower Expo' focused primarily on flowers for urban decoration (viewing), market and customer needs for the 2027 Expo have significantly shifted toward 'Green for Saving the Earth' (solutions). HIS deeply resonates with the Expo’s theme, 'Scenery of Tomorrow for Creating Happiness,' and its commitment to realizing a sustainable society.

To promote this initiative with a unified company-wide effort, HIS has newly established the 'GREEN×EXPO 2027 Promotion Office.' To ensure the success of the Expo, HIS will maximize its global network to build a framework for welcoming a large number of visitors from both Japan and overseas.

Beginning in the autumn of 2026, HIS will sequentially release special plans designed for a comfortable Expo experience. The lineup will include special journeys that offer multifaceted appreciation beyond mere viewing, package tours, accommodation plans, and training plans for corporate and organizational groups. HIS will support a diverse range of domestic and international customers, from individual travelers to business and educational sectors.
