Management Philosophy |
Shaping a Future Where People and Mobility Connect At AUTOBACS SEVEN, we honor individuality and embrace the joy of diverse forms of mobility, working to build a society where people and mobility coexist in harmony. |
In our 2024 Mid-Term Management Plan, we are proceeding with changes to our structure to focus on and strengthen our two core businesses of retail and wholesale, which are our areas of greatest expertise.
The business model of our main business, The "AUTOBACS Business," is a franchise model with our company as the franchise headquarters. Leveraging the know-how and human resources acquired through the "AUTOBACS Business," we are also promoting "Other Businesses" such as the "Consumer Business," "Wholesale Business," and "Expansion Business".
Strengths of AUTOBACS
１．Franchise system that grows with the headquarters
The first AUTOBACS store was opened in November 1974, followed by the first franchise the following year. Subsequently, as motorization progressed rapidly, we continued to expand through the franchise system, which was rare in the automotive industry at the time. Today, we have roughly 1,059 stores in Japan, 729 of which are franchisees.（店舗数は2026年3月末時点）
2．Safe and reliable AUTOBACS brand
By offering quality products and services that allow customers to use their cars safely with a sense of security, the Company has aimed to provide value exceeding customer expectations. This has been successful, leading to high ratings in brand strength by external organizations.
3．Extensive store and logistics network
The Company has franchised automotive goods stores and used car purchasing and sales stores in Japan and overseas, and now operates approximately 1,300 stores worldwide. We procure diverse products from around the world beyond the confines of Japan and conduct wholesale and retail sales in Japan and eight other countries and regions. In addition, we procure products from our subsidiaries. （店舗数は2025年3月末時点）
