Investment thesis
MARUI GROUP describes a corporate vision it calls an 'economy driven by suki (what you love),' aiming to reconcile impact and profit ahead of its 100th anniversary in 2031. Building on its integrated retail and fintech model, it seeks to evolve into a business that supports individuals' passions — anime, artists, art, sports, pets, culture — combining these with the group's assets and expertise so that consumption for oneself extends to benefiting others and society. Its stated mission is co-creating an inclusive society where everyone can feel happiness, pursued through co-creation investment, financial empowerment, decarbonization, and support for future generations' business creation.
