Kyodo KY-TEC Corporation (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director and President: Ken Yoshida; hereinafter "the Company"), an environmental equipment manufacturer, is pleased to announce that it has acquired the naming rights for Hikichidai Park, which was solicited by Yamato City, Kanagawa Prefecture, after a selection process. The new nickname will be used starting April 1, 2026.
◆Background of the Application
Founded in 1950, the Company currently operates three businesses as an environmental equipment manufacturer: the "Busduct Business," which holds the No. 1 domestic share in power supply for large-scale facilities; the "Floor System Business," which handles system floors for storing power and information cables under the floor; and the "Green Infrastructure Business," which develops green infrastructure aimed at improving building insulation and enhancing landscapes. In particular, in our core "Busduct Business," we have established our main manufacturing base in Yamato City and have built a close relationship with the local community over many years through participation in local events and cleaning activities. Hikichidai Park is located a 5-minute walk from our "Kanagawa Technical Center," one of our bases, and has long been loved as a place of relaxation for employees and local residents. As a company that has grown with Yamato City for over 60 years since 1961 (Showa 36), we applied for the naming rights with the desire to contribute even more to improving the attractiveness of Yamato City and Hikichidai Park and revitalizing the region.
◆Future Initiatives
The nickname "Kyodo KY-TEC Mirai Park" embodies the desire to "create the future together with the community" along with the company name. As a naming rights partner, the Company aims for the nickname to become familiar to local residents and to serve as an opportunity for them to learn more about our initiatives, while also striving to enhance the facility's appeal and contribute to the community through various projects utilizing the park.
