1. Background of Implementation
As an official partner of the Chunichi Dragons, our company, including the Meitetsu Group, aims to provide value to local residents through baseball that connects "surprise" to "emotion" and "admiration." Under the statement "Bringing emotion to the home turf," as part of our measures to invigorate the Chunichi Dragons and the local community, we operated the "Chunichi Dragons Cheering Taxi" from August 2025 to the end of January 2026, receiving a great response from many local residents.
This year, we will increase the cheering momentum of the local community by operating newly wrapped vehicles in conjunction with the start of the season.
2. Operation of the "Chunichi Dragons Cheering Taxi 2nd Edition"
This year, we will operate two types of wrapped vehicles, blue and pink, in conjunction with the opening game at Vantelin Dome Nagoya.
