NEXCO EAST (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, Chairman: Shigejiro Yagi), the service area/parking area (SA/PA) has been transformed from "a facility that is used" to "a facility that is willing to use" New "Pasar" With this brand, we will actively promote the construction of attractive commercial facilities. "Pasar" Will expand to about 20 locations in SA/PA over the next 10 years, and the first store on Thursday, March 20th "Pasar Makuhari" (Out-bound Line) will open at Keiyo Road Makuhari PA (Out-bound Line).
In Pasar Makuhari (Out-bound line), many tenants will open their first store on the Expressway. In the shopping zone, we will create a "Tokyo mood" by gathering popular Tokyo specialties in line with the location of Makuhari PA (Out-bound line).
Along with the opening of "Pasar Makuhari" (Out-bound line), the parking lot has been greatly expanded, and the whole Makuhari PA (Out-bound line) has been set up, including a toilet with a powder corner and consideration for the environment and barrier-free. It will be transformed into a comfortable facility.
In addition, "Pasar Makuhari" (In-bound line) will open in the summer of 2008. Some stores such as convenience stores will open at the same time as the Out-bound line.
What is "Pasar"?
- It is a combination of "PA" in the "parking area", "SA" in the "service area", and "R" in the relaxation, and also "market" in Indonesian and "stop" in Spanish (" It means "spend time". As a new form of SA/PA, we would like to propose to our customers "a place where you can relax and take a break during the journey" and "a lively place where you can enjoy yourself during the journey".
The ellipse of the logo mark is an image of the spread and comfort of "Pasar," and the green multicolor represents the four seasons based on the corporate color of NEXCO EAST.
"Pasar Makuhari" (Out-bound) facility concept and store contents
[Facility concept]
- Since it has a horizontally long facility shape, a 24-hour convenience store and toilets are placed at both ends as the core facility for attracting customers, and the traffic lines and the shops around it are regarded as a cityscape, and people are placed in the center. By creating a pool, it is possible to move to the shops in the facility.
- Aiming to create a space where each scene can be enjoyed, the facility will be a comfortable commercial facility that provides customers with "anshin" and "kandou".
