Access Line Expands Retail Presence to Meet Urgent Pet Care Needs at Interpets Osaka 2026

Addressing "Same-Day Need" Inquiries

Recently, customer support for the pet appliance brand Uchinoko Electric has received an increasing number of inquiries like, "I'm traveling tomorrow and need this today," "Where can I find this in stores?" and "I want to see it in person before buying." Even in an age where next-day delivery is the norm, the demand to have products on hand immediately remains strong.

To meet these needs, Access Line Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture; Representative Director: Yoji Kiyokawa), which manages the Uchinoko Electric brand, will debut at Interpets Osaka 2026, held at Intex Osaka from June 19 to 21, 2026, to solidify collaborations with pet shops, home centers, and consumer electronics retailers nationwide.

Growing Anxiety Over Pets Left Alone

As pet humanization increases, pet owners face significant challenges when away from home for travel or business. Needs for managing meals and drinking water for pets are expanding. According to Fuji Keizai, the domestic pet tech market is projected to reach 10.6 billion yen by 2030, a 73.8% increase from 2024.

Proven Track Record in the E-commerce Market

Uchinoko Electric has established a strong reputation supporting pet households. The "Karikari Machine" automatic feeder series has sold 168,538 units since 2016, while the "Plus Aqua" automatic waterer series has sold 110,042 units since 2021, totaling 278,580 units sold.

Expert Supervision for Dietary and Hydration Support

The premium "Karikari Machine V2C+" model offers remote operation and real-time monitoring. Both series are planned under the supervision of Dr. Kai Sonoda, a veterinarian and director of the Nihonbashi Animal Hospital in Tokyo.
