DION International Co., Ltd. has officially introduced a docking station for the shared bicycle service "Charichari" within the parking area of our new office located at Kamimabe 3-chome, Higashi Ward, Kumamoto City.

Several Charichari docking stations are already in operation near our office, including those near MrMax Kumamoto Inter and YouMe Town Sunpiaan, as the local transportation network continues to expand. With this new installation, we hope to provide a more convenient cycling environment for local residents and visitors, further enhancing mobility throughout the area.

Charichari is a shared bicycle service actively promoted by Kumamoto City, aimed at alleviating traffic congestion, strengthening connectivity with public transportation, and encouraging movement within the city. Docking stations have already been established at commercial facilities, universities, and public institutions throughout the city, contributing to the ongoing development of sustainable urban mobility.

This initiative also supports the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including:

• • Goal 3: Good Health and Well-being
• • Goal 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure
• • Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities
• • Goal 13: Climate Action
• • Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals

We will continue to deepen our collaboration with the local community and actively engage in activities aimed at reducing environmental impact and advancing sustainable urban development.

We look forward to this Charichari docking station becoming a convenient transportation option for both community residents and visitors, and hope it will be widely utilized.
