Tokuty Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Naosuke Sugihara) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a business partnership (customer referral agreement) with Saga Bank Co., Ltd. (Head Office: Saga City, Saga Prefecture; President: Hideaki Sakai, hereinafter referred to as Saga Bank) to support regional companies facing labor shortages.

Background of the Collaboration

In the Kyushu region, including Saga Prefecture, labor shortages due to the declining working-age population have become a serious management issue hindering the sustainable growth of regional companies.

As a regional financial institution, Saga Bank is strengthening its "comprehensive consulting function," actively working not only to support cash flow but also to solve various issues faced by its client companies.

Meanwhile, labor shortages are becoming an increasingly serious problem nationwide, particularly in industries such as construction, food manufacturing, industrial manufacturing, accommodation, logistics, and nursing care, where securing immediate talent is urgent. The utilization of foreign workers with Specified Skills is attracting attention as one of the major solutions in these industries.

Tokuty will now collaborate with Saga Bank to introduce its matching platform "tokuty" to Saga Bank's client companies facing labor shortage challenges. By working together, both companies will strongly support companies in securing human resources, contributing to the development of a sustainable regional economy and regional revitalization.

We are eager to leverage our expertise in recruiting and retaining foreign talent to support small and medium-sized enterprises and mid-sized companies in Saga and Kyushu, which are facing severe labor shortages, by achieving optimal matching and powerfully boosting their growth. We will work as a unified company to support them from recruitment through their subsequent success, contributing to the further development of the Saga and Kyushu economies."
