Our mission is to contribute to Japan’s healthy and environmentally friendly urban development by providing new mobility services that are rooted in local communities and loved by people, and we work together with all stakeholders to realize a sustainable society. That’s what I’m aiming for.
In 2011, the bike share service started a social demonstration experiment in Yokohama City, and since then we have been promoting joint projects with local governments across the country and working hard to expand bike share in the Japanese market.
In order to serve as a means of transportation for many customers, we use AI to predict demand and carry out operations 365 days a year to pull bicycles from ports where there is room for them and rebalance them to ports where there is a shortage. We are accumulating operational know-how to meet the high expectations of our customers, including spot collection of bicycles and the establishment of dedicated charging stations.
Currently, we operate a total of 28 areas as a directly managed business in Tokyo, Sendai, Yokohama, Kawasaki, Osaka, Hyogo, Nara, Hiroshima, Oita, Kagoshima, and Okinawa, and provide a sharing platform system to 30 areas nationwide. We have a total of 58 areas. In May 2023, we will launch “Tokyo EV Bike Share (electric 3-wheel)” in collaboration with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government in the Tokyo waterfront area (Odaiba/Ariake area), as part of our zero-emission Tokyo initiative. We are working on creating moving scenes.
