From Zero Track Record to 7,000 Major Convenience Stores in 3.5 Years! Case Study Sharing Session on Enterprise Conquest Process to be Held July 29

Keiei Sanbou Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Kenji Araya), operator of the business community bar "Sanbou BAR," will hold a case study sharing session titled "Enterprise Conquest from Zero Track Record ~Revealing the Process of Introducing to 7,000 Major Convenience Stores in Just 3.5 Years~" on July 29, 2026, at Sanbou BAR Shinjuku.

Ryusei Nakamura, Business Development Director at Couger Inc., will be the guest speaker, revealing the business development process that led a product with no prior track record to be adopted by 7,000 major convenience store chain locations. The event is targeted at executives, business development managers, and corporate sales representatives from small and medium-sized enterprises and startups. Seminar participation is free.

Background of the Event

"We have a product, but no track record, so major companies won't even consider us."

Many startups and small to medium-sized enterprises face the dilemma of "We can't sell because we have no track record, and we can't build a track record because we can't sell." Many cases stall at the Proof of Concept (PoC) stage without progressing to full-scale implementation.

This seminar will reveal how Couger Inc. broke through this barrier and achieved introduction to 7,000 stores nationwide in just 3.5 years. Speaker Mr. Nakamura will openly share the business development decisions, negotiations, internal breakthroughs, and PDCA cycle processes involved. You will leave with a "reproducible process" applicable from tomorrow, not just a neatly organized success story, but details on what actually worked and what caused setbacks.

Event Features and Highlights

* Learn the process behind the real-life case of achieving introduction to 7,000 major convenience store locations from a state of zero track record. * Discover the reality of decision-making, negotiation, and internal breakthroughs to move from PoC to full-scale implementation. * Take away a "framework" for conquering enterprise-level national chains. * Network directly with the speaker and other participants during the post-seminar reception.
