Strengths of S-Pool

Strength 1: Social Businesses Based on the Sanpo-Yoshi Philosophy

In accordance with our mission, “Applying the power of outsourcing to support corporate innovation and solutions to society’s challenges,” we advance social businesses that address social issues as well as the associated challenges faced by companies and municipal authorities. This mission aligns with the sanpo-yoshi philosophy of merchants from Omi Province, who advocated an approach to business that was “good for the seller, good for the buyer, and good for society.”
This philosophy of not only pursuing corporate profit but also helping to increase the value of customers and address social issues attracts talented personnel, enables the development of unique businesses, and sustains corporate growth.

Strength 2: Unique Business Model Based on Shared Outsourcing Services

Through outsourcing services, we aim to address issues that many companies and government bodies face but find challenging to tackle alone. The outsourcing services we provide are shared by multiple companies and municipal authorities that use our services. This sharing creates “stock” businesses, meaning that operations are not reliant upon specific customers and that revenue grows stably as service users increase.

  2 logistics centers shared by 72 companies

Strength 3: Stable Growth Through Portfolio Management

To build a structure that is less susceptible to changes in the external environment, we are strategically developing a wide array of businesses rather than relying on a specific business. Even if the performances of certain businesses deteriorate, the performances of other businesses compensate for such downturns, enabling the Group to achieve stable revenue and sustain growth.

Strength 4: Organizational Structure for the Rapid Start-Up of New Businesses

The development of new businesses is at the core of the Group’s growth. We begin this process by identifying social issues and carefully analyzing the related material issues of companies and municipal authorities. Then, after conducting market analysis, verifying profitability and feasibility, and developing a business model, we move forward to commercialization. We have established a specialized division that enables the effective use of expertise and resources, and in December 2023 we also introduced an internal company system. This system expedites the development of new businesses by facilitating the active rollout of derivative businesses while making full use of our existing customer base.
