Tsukulink and San-in Godo Bank Begin Partnership to Support DX for Regional Construction Industry

Tsukulink Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; President: Tatsuo Uchiyama, hereinafter referred to as "our company"), which operates a construction industry matching platform with the purpose of "Transforming the industrial structure and creating a prosperous future," has begun a business matching partnership with The San-in Godo Bank, Ltd. (Head Office: Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture; Director and President: Hiroshi Yoshikawa, hereinafter referred to as "San-in Godo Bank") to solve management challenges for regional construction businesses. ■ Background In the current construction industry, the chronic "shortage of skilled workers and contractors" due to the aging workforce and a decrease in young entrants is a critical issue for regional companies supporting social infrastructure. Especially for construction businesses and building contractors in rural areas, it has become difficult to arrange cooperating companies or secure new workers through traditional analog connections alone, making it urgent to expand business networks through digital means. ■ Overview and Objectives of this Partnership Our company has entered into an agreement with San-in Godo Bank to introduce our services to the bank's clients, including its loan customers. By introducing and encouraging the use of "Tsukulink" among the construction businesses that are clients of San-in Godo Bank, which supports the regional economy, we will promote the expansion of business networks, improve sales efficiency, and reduce costs. We will contribute to resolving labor shortages for client companies and stabilizing their operations by smoothing out the fluctuations between off-peak and peak seasons. Our company will continue to support the challenges and growth of everyone involved in the construction industry through various partnerships like this one, in order to realize our purpose of "Transforming the industrial structure and creating a prosperous future." ■ About the Construction Industry Matching Platform "Tsukulink" "Tsukulink" is a matching platform that connects construction businesses, available for free registration. When information on construction projects such as renovation, interior work, painting, and civil engineering is registered on the site, transaction inquiries are received from eligible members, enabling negotiation. Users can also create their own company profile pages for free. In the construction industry, where the shortage of skilled workers is becoming more severe, it promotes the expansion of business networks, improved sales efficiency, and cost reduction. The number of registered businesses on "Tsukulink" continues to grow, exceeding 120,000 companies as of March 2026. We will continue to strive for the expansion of services that enhance the quality of matching, as well as the increase in the number of members and construction project cases. With the purpose of "Transforming the industrial structure and creating a prosperous future," our company aims to promote the efficient utilization of limited resources in the construction industry, which is currently facing labor shortages, through "Tsukulink." We will contribute to the DX of the construction industry and strive to be a platform that brings happiness to everyone involved in construction, from clients to the workers on site. ■ Company Overview 【The San-in Godo Bank, Ltd.】 Location: 10 Uomachi, Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture Representative: Director and President Hiroshi Yoshikawa Business Description: Banking services 【Tsukulink Co., Ltd.】 Location: J-Pro Yoyogi Bldg. 4F, 1-4-1 Yoyogi, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo Representative: President Tatsuo Uchiyama Business Description: Planning, development, and operation of the "Tsukulink" order-matching platform for the construction industry, etc. ■ Contact Information for Inquiries Regarding This Matter Tsukulink Co., Ltd.
