International Initiatives We Focus On

Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

The SDGs refer to the international goals set forth in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable

Development adopted at the United Nations Summit in September 2015 as the successor to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) established

in 2001. Given the medium- to long-term expectations stakeholders have for the resolution of these challenges, our priority issues (materiality) were established in September 2019 with reference to the SDGs.

Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI)

PRI comprises an international network of

financial institutions working to realize six principles for the finance industry with the aim of encouraging the incorporation of environmental,

social, and governance ("ESG") issues into investment decision-making processes. Fukuoka Realty Co., Ltd., endorsed and became a signatory of PRI in September 2018 to promote the consideration of ESG issues in real estate investment management operations and practices that conform to international standards.

Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD)

the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) established by the Financial Stability Board (FSB), having endorsed the recommendations of the TCFD that were announced in June 2017. We will strive to disclose the impact of climate change and implement specific measures based

on the recommendations of the TCFD in addition to continuing to reduce environmental impact and contribute to the local community.

Canal City Hakata

Redevelopment project that took approximately 20 years to complete

Canal City Hakata is a multipurpose retail facility that opened in 1996 as an urban redevelopment project based on the concept of "urban theater."

Canal City Hakata is located between the Tenjin district̶which forms the commercial center of Fukuoka City̶and the business district centering on JR Hakata Station, and is close to the famous entertainment area Nakasu and Kushida Shrine, which once flourished as a community of Hakata merchants and is famous throughout Japan for the Hakata Yamakasa Festival. Canal City Hakata was designed by American architect Jon Jerde. The project site was the former location of the Hakata Silk Cotton Spinning Company (later the Hakata Factory of Kanegafuchi Spinning, hereafter the "Kanebo Factory"). It had become a forgotten plot of land at the heart of Fukuoka City that had lost the urban functions that once helped develop modern society.

In 1977, Fukuoka Jisho acquired a portion of the former Kanebo Factory site, which is an area of approximately 3,000 tsubo. At the time, the area was being planned as a redevelopment for condominiums, but the concept was reworked many times in the hope of "reviving Hakata as a commercial city." In 1982, a basic development concept was formulated and a master plan was announced the following year, but the redevelopment was temporarily postponed due to the poor earnings for key tenants. In 1988, a major step toward realization was finally taken, and Canal City Hakata opened on April 20, 1996, as a catalyst to revitalize the central part of the downtown area, which had become stagnant, and to promote the balanced development of the entire city center. Traffic congestion on surrounding roads that had been a concern before the opening was addressed through road maintenance in cooperation with the local government, and a pedestrian bridge was constructed to connect to the Kamikawabata Shopping Arcade. Accordingly, the opening of Canal City Hakata has led to the revitalization of the Kamikawabata Shopping Arcade and surrounding areas.
