We are pleased to announce that we (Kurumed Coffee / Kurumido Kissaten: Kokubunji, Tokyo, Owner Tomoaki Kageyama; Music Securities, Inc.: Chiyoda, Tokyo, Representative Director Hiroki Nakazono) have established the "Bunji Capital Market"—a local capital market that realizes the local production and local consumption of money.
This is a platform of finance and community that connects businesses in the Kokubunji and Kunitachi areas "taking on new challenges" or "protecting what is important" with investment (support) from the people of the town, solicited through a business-investment crowdfunding mechanism.
For businesses, it is a mechanism not only to raise funds but also to build supporters (fans) who will accompany their business promotion over a long period of about 5 years. For investors, it is a mechanism to directly participate in initiatives that shape the future of the town where they live. By realizing this on a local scale, we aim to contribute to the creation of an "ecosystem of the regional economy" through the participation of both businesses and investors, serving as a foundation for business success and improving the quality of life in the town.
Bunji Capital Market supports the formation of such communities not only at the stage of fund structuring and fundraising but throughout the accounting period of the fund. The Kokubunji-Kunitachi area is a region where a supportive social capital is already rising, with Mr. Kageyama, the guide of this project, as a core. By linking with such movements within the area, we expect to realize a "warm flow of money" rooted in "visible relationships."

As the first fund to be raised at Bunji Capital Market, we have structured a flagship store opening support fund for the direct sales shop "Shunka Shunka" by Emarico Kunitachi Co., Ltd., which is headquartered in Kunitachi City, has been established for 15 years, and has continued to connect 150 local agricultural producers with the people of the town.
