About the company

Runs リゾートグランピングドットコム, a booking site for glamping facilities, and いぬやど, a booking site for places you can stay with your dog, earning a fee from the accommodation for each booking.

How it makes money

Its main business is performance-based marketing for accommodation: it lists hotels and inns on its booking sites with no upfront fee and earns a commission each time a booking is made. In the year to April 2026 this business accounted for 1.29 billion yen of total revenue of 1.72 billion yen. At the end of April 2026 it listed 450 facilities (up 23.6% year on year), and it secured about 202,000 bookings in the year to April 2026. It also runs its own accommodation in Chiba, Chichibu and Yamanashi, and in December 2025 it acquired the inn 湖風の宿あさふじ in Fujikawaguchiko, Yamanashi, through a business transfer.

Where growth is meant to come from

In the year to April 2026 it started a facility renewal and resale business, buying older accommodation, improving it, making it bookable through its own sites and then selling it; the first property, in Izu, Shizuoka, is scheduled to open in October 2026. It also aims to raise transactions from overseas visitors to 2 billion yen by the year to April 2028. For the year to April 2027 the company forecasts revenue of 2.20 billion yen (up 28.0%) and operating profit of 0.51 billion yen (down 0.1%), so profit is expected to stay at about last year's level.
