Agent Inc. (headquartered in Shibuya, Tokyo; CEO: Koji Shinomiya), a company dedicated to solving societal challenges through business innovation, announces the opening of its Kanazawa Satellite Office (Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture) on July 21, 2026. This move is driven by its mission to achieve a 'no one left behind' digital shift and to address the critical social issue of talent shortages faced by regional businesses.
This new office will serve as a strategic hub to strengthen sales, recruitment, and talent supply operations across the Hokuriku region, supporting local enterprises in building sustainable growth environments. Through locally rooted recruitment, training, and talent deployment, Agent will deliver faster and more stable services to companies in Ishikawa, Toyama, and Fukui prefectures.
Background of the Opening
As digital transformation accelerates and new services and devices emerge, the importance of sales and promotion professionals—who communicate these innovations and expand possibilities for life and business—has grown significantly.
However, there remains a stark disparity in talent acquisition between urban and rural areas. Many regional companies struggle to secure the personnel they need, which has become a major constraint on business growth.
About the Kanazawa Satellite Office
The Kanazawa Satellite Office will serve as the core hub for sales, recruitment, and talent supply in the Hokuriku region, advancing the following initiatives:
- Strengthened sales activities targeting Ishikawa, Toyama, and Fukui prefectures - Promotion of locally rooted recruitment efforts - Establishment of a robust talent supply infrastructure - Rapid talent matching aligned with on-site needs - Enhanced operational support systems
By establishing a regionally embedded sales structure, Agent aims to capture customer needs more swiftly and flexibly, delivering high-quality services.
Agent’s Unique Strengths
Agent employs a '20-working-days-per-month model,' which differs from short-term or spot-based staffing. This model focuses on long-term, stable employment, enabling continuous support for client operations.
By combining nationwide expertise in sales and recruitment with localized operations, Agent will ensure stable talent supply and rapid response capabilities in the Hokuriku region.
Addressing Talent Challenges for Regional Enterprises
Agent views talent shortages not merely as recruitment issues but as societal challenges tied to regional industry development and the advancement of a digital society.
Creating an environment where regional enterprises can reliably secure the talent they need contributes not only to local economic revitalization but also to accelerating Japan’s nationwide digital transformation.
The opening of the Kanazawa Satellite Office marks the first step in concretizing Agent’s mission of 'no one left behind' digital shift in the Hokuriku region.
Moving forward, Agent will continue to promote sustainable systems that enable simultaneous growth for businesses, workers, and local communities through regionally rooted talent development and supply.
Future Outlook
Leveraging its nationwide network of offices, Agent will continue enhancing region-specific sales, recruitment, and talent supply systems. In the Hokuriku region, the company will expand its sales and recruitment foundations, aiming to deliver greater value as a trusted partner supporting regional business growth.
