The medium-term management plan for the third quarter, which started in May 2023, has been completed and two years have passed since then. This year, May of 2025, will be the final year of the medium-term management plan. This three-year period of the medium-term management plan is called the profit-improving phase.

Also, the store age is now 6 years and 7 months at all points.

The third focus strategy is the PB strategy. At the end of this year, the goal of the broadcast is 12% of the PB sales cost. In the previous year, due to the high demand for raw materials, the development of new products was delayed, and due to the high demand for existing products, the sales of products increased. Therefore, the increase in SKU was not as expected. However, on the other hand, The introduction of this PV to each group of companies has advanced further, and the development of existing products and sales growth have also improved, and the sales target of PV itself is in good order. The previous year's annual sales of the entire PV of the previous year was 109%. In terms of category, the SKU of food is now at 143+. Due to this, the sales of food increased by 119% in the previous year. We are also working on joint development with major manufacturers.
