If there were 8 days in a week, what kind of inspiration would people find there?
8HOTEL was born from this very idea.
8HOTEL serves as a base for transmitting SHONAN BEACH CULTURE to the world, blending elements of FASHION, ART, FOOD, and MUSIC.
8HOTEL CHIGASAKI, designed like a motel, offers a unique experience with a pool and surrounding non-everyday spaces like the front desk and shared saunas, providing more enjoyment than a typical hotel.
THE HISTORY OF THE BRAND

MATE.BIKE started with the desire to broaden the worldview and values of its riders and create a better future in all aspects, growing into one of the world's leading e-BIKE brands. The brand name, MATE, signifies a reliable companion that efficiently assists people in their journeys from point A to point B. It represents a supportive friend, a partner to conquer hills with, encouragement for progress, relief from pain, and many other forms of support.
Today, MATE.BIKE continues to evolve beyond the e-BIKE category, working with passionate colleagues and skilled specialists to overcome challenges, aiming for a society that makes better choices for both people and the planet, such as using 100% renewable energy and realizing a circular economy.
MATE.BIKE IN JAPAN
In 2021, amidst growing environmental problems caused by traffic congestion and exhaust fumes, MATE.BIKE made its debut in Japan as an environmentally friendly, sustainable next-generation mobility that emits no carbon dioxide. In the same year, the world's first flagship store opened in Ebisu, Tokyo. In the spring of 2023, it relocated and expanded to Minami-Aoyama as Asia's largest flagship store, and in May, the first Kansai flagship store opened in Minami-Senba, Osaka. In May 2025, the first family concept store will open in Jiyugaoka.
With the statement "For the future 100 years from now," we are advancing towards becoming the leading company in e-BIKEs in Japan.
