Nihon Knowledge Space Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Tatsukuni Matsuoka; hereinafter 'the Company'), which develops enterprise systems, introduced a new employee benefit system called the 'Meat Reward Subscription' on April 1, 2026, to further deepen its health investment and lifestyle support for its employees.
Under this system, carefully selected brand meat, primarily domestic (2.3kg to 3.2kg), is delivered to the employees' homes once every three months, fully paid for by the Company. Combined with the existing 'Rice Purchase Subsidy,' 'Imperfect Vegetable Subscription,' and 'Ticket Restaurant,' the Company has completed its 'Total Food Support,' comprehensively backing the main ingredient portfolio of the family dining table.
## Background of the New 'Meat Reward Subscription'
Under the philosophy that 'the health of workers is a future created by management,' the Company has rolled out over 70 types of employee benefits. In 2026, amidst the continuing rise in grocery prices putting pressure on household budgets, the Company realized this system in partnership with 'Nikuya Oishi,' a long-established butcher shop founded 55 years ago, as direct support for actual living conditions.
## Economic Outcomes: Designing Household 'Fixed Costs' by the Company
According to the 2026 household survey, the average monthly food expense for a four-person household reached approximately 102,000 yen. By offering staple foods, side dishes, and now the main dish (meat) as a packaged provision, the Company substantially increases the disposable income of its employees.
