Here we outline Mitsui Fudosan's business operations.

Office buildings serve a very important function both as bases for business activity and as urban centers that tie together people and their cities. And at any time, the key player here is the "working person." Providing an efficient and comfortable place for people to work is our role at the Mitsui Fudosan Group.

"Workers first" is our concept behind our office buildings. Integral to this concept is the provision of safe, comfortable, and vibrant urban space for everyone, which includes not only workers but also people living in the community and all other concerned individuals.

In addition to the development of office buildings that meet the various needs for office space, we undertake all operational responsibilities from management to maintenance in our quest to create environments that enrich and inspire the people that work within them.

We want to make our customers' dream home their reality. To make this possible, the Mitsui Fudosan Group is endeavoring to enhance the quality of both its products and services while appreciating the needs of diversifying personal values and lifestyles.

From planning and construction, through to sales, management, and after-sales service, it goes without saying that we repeatedly strive for a customer-focused approach throughout our housing business operations. What's more, we are delivering improved comfort and satisfaction to all aspects of our customers' lives by deepening customer communication through effective use of websites and blogs, publication of informative magazines, and other various means.

Through the collective strength of Mitsui Fudosan Residential (housing and lot sales), Mitsui Fudosan Housing Lease (rental housing), Mitsui Real Estate Sales (property introduction), Mitsui Home (custom-made home construction), Mitsui Home Remodeling (home renovation), and other partners, the Group is set to meet a wide variety of needs while simultaneously striving to be number one in customer satisfaction.

We aim to create retail properties that grow together with people and communities. In pursuing this goal, the Mitsui Fudosan Group follows the principle of "growing together" in developing retail properties that are loved by the communities they serve.

Growing together means our retail properties reflect the voices of our customers from the development stage onward as they continue to evolve in a way that meets the changing needs and desires of the times. This is how we create a shopping center that meets today's demand for an inspirational experience.

In the process of making this vision a reality, all retail tenants and facility operations staff share the concept of growing together and welcome their customers' views. Hence, customers openly convey their opinions about a facility. In turn, these opinions enable us to continually focus our creativity and efforts so each facility meets these demands. Through this ongoing process, we create attractive urban developments where people can spend time in a meaningful and enjoyable manner.

In 2006, we opened various retail properties that are closely linked to their communities and designed for enriching life quality, including Lazona Kawasaki and Urban Dock LaLaport Toyosu. In 2007, Tokyo Midtown and Lalaport Yokohama,both Mitsui Fudosan Group's retail properties, opened.
