As well as underpinning our food, agriculture is a sector in which our unique qualities come into their own. In addition to financing for agricultural equipment, we provide new services and solutions designed to improve productivity and profitability for agricultural producers. A prime example is Noki Share Lease®, a scheme that enables multiple producers to share access to agricultural machines such as large combine harvesters. The aim is also to develop products in line with feedback from actual users.

Here at JA Mitsui Leasing, we continue to take on the challenge of contributing to a sustainable industrial society in the environment and energy sector. In addition to financing for the sustainable energy industry, we also invest via dedicated funds. We provide support for companies generating power from a range of energy sources, including solar, biomass, geothermal and wind power. We get involved in businesses ourselves too, so that we can actively contribute to a diverse energy industry in line with the characteristics of each region.

Our unique network with doctors and the medical industry is one of our strengths here at JA Mitsui Leasing. In the healthcare and medical malls sector, we make the most of that to offer support services for aspiring doctors looking to open their own clinics, and to plan, develop and operate “medical malls,” which are unique facilities that bring together clinics specializing in different areas of treatment. We also offer financing for CT, MRI and other types of diagnostic imaging equipment, via fee-based leasing.

We have built up expertise and our own network in the real estate sector, through building leases that provide support in areas such as off-balance sheet assets and funding. Our extensive track record includes the likes of commercial facilities and hotels, as well as healthcare and distribution facilities. We make the most of that wide-ranging expertise to identify uses for land from a business owner’s point of view, and have also expanded into real estate development, including construction and attracting tenants. Our aim is to contribute to the development of more vibrant communities.

We provide a wide range of support in the distribution sector, including in-store equipment for the likes of supermarkets and convenience stores, as well as warehousing, amusement equipment and vending machines. In fact, we specialize in solutions for companies that manage large numbers of properties, as in the vending machine industry for instance. In the future, we are planning to focus on new ventures in the food and agriculture business, based on business matching between agricultural producers, food manufacturers and distribution companies.
