Greetings

Guided by its corporate message, “FamilyMart, Where You Are One of the Family,” FamilyMart has evolved continuously in accordance with social changes and customer needs. As a result, we have grown to become a convenience store chain with approximately 24,500 stores in Japan and overseas. I would like to take this opportunity to express my deep appreciation to the customers who use our stores daily, our franchised stores, and all those involved with FamilyMart, whose support has enabled us to continue our progress.

In 2021, when we celebrated the 40th anniversary of our founding, we pledged to take on new challenges under the slogan of “Aiming to Become No. 1.” Since then, we have tackled a variety of initiatives as a “convenience store that takes on challenges!” In 2024, we received praise for our many ready-to-eat items, led by our Fresh Moist Bread products, which sold a total of 1.2 million units in the first three days of their launch. With over 10,000 FamilyMartVision, our in-store digital signage media, we have also created surprises and new experiences through a novel advertising method aligning store displays and the FamilyMart app. In addition, our Convenience Wear has attracted attention in the fashion world in the post-COVID-19 era, and support for this range of clothing is expanding overseas. For example, it sold out immediately after going on sale in Taiwan.

Amid intensifying inflation, fiscal 2025 will be a year in which we are called upon to demonstrate even greater ingenuity and effort. With this in mind, we will firmly implement the fundamental principles of “earn, cut, prevent” while endeavoring to further strengthen our existing stores. We will create stores that are more convenient and pleasant for customers by expanding sales floors through initiatives including the Apollo Program , for increasing floor space easily, and by evolving standard layouts. In fiscal 2025, we will also continue to do our utmost to create stores that inspire customers to come again by offering products and services that exude a sense of value beyond their price.

FamilyMart, Where You Are One of the Family

We will aim to be a convenience store that is rooted closely in the local community, like a family, while aspiring to create essential places that go beyond convenience.

We look forward to your continued support in fiscal 2025.
