FamilyMart Signs Comprehensive Partnership Agreement with Oga City, Katagami City, and Akita City

FamilyMart Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and Representative Director: Takeo Kotani) announces that it will sign a 'Comprehensive Partnership Agreement' with Oga City (Mayor: Koji Sugawara), Katagami City (Mayor: Yudai Suzuki), and Akita City (Mayor: Jun Numaya) on Wednesday, June 3, 2026. The agreement aims for the sustainable development of local communities by utilizing regional resources and improving the convenience of local residents. This agreement is triggered by the 'Offshore Wind Power Project off the coast of Oga City, Katagami City, and Akita City in Akita Prefecture,' promoted by a consortium including Itochu Corporation. Previously, based on a comprehensive partnership agreement signed in February 2025 between Katagami City and FamilyMart, a group company of Itochu, initiatives for regional coexistence such as consignment sales within city hall and joint development of products using local specialties have been advanced. Through this agreement, the three cities and FamilyMart will effectively utilize their human and material resources to further enhance resident services on a wider scale and revitalize local communities. Notably, this is the first time FamilyMart has signed comprehensive partnership agreements with multiple municipalities simultaneously. The areas of cooperation include 10 items: health maintenance and promotion, food education, tourism information and promotion, regional disaster prevention and mitigation, local safety and security, child and youth development, support for the elderly and disabled, environmental measures and recycling, development and sales of city products, specialty products, and original products, enhancement of employee welfare and work environment, and other matters related to improving resident services and revitalizing local communities. Going forward, the four parties will hold regular consultations based on this agreement, and will work to solve regional issues and realize sustainable community development by maximizing the use of their respective resources and know-how.
