    NEWS RELEASE Meiji Yasuda Seimei Building. 18F 2-1-1, Marunouchi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 100-0005, Japan T 03 5288 9288 www.cbre.co.jp Twitter: @cbrejapan August 1, 2019 For further information: CBRE Corporate Communications 03-5288-9283 CBRE Releases Special Report "The Future of Osaka: Anticipating 2030" Osaka to See More Office Stock in Umeda Shinsaibashi Area to Thrive into One of Japan’s Leading Retail Districts Yumeshima to Become New Commercial Real Estate Hub in Osaka CBRE today released a special report entitled "The Future of Osaka: Anticipating 2030." This report discusses Osaka’s real estate prospects and identifies opportunities set to emerge over the next decade in this rapidly evolving market. ◇Changing Osaka – A Summary Osaka's office district formerly extended along Midosuji from Yodoyabashi to Honmachi, but over the past 20 years it has shifted to Umeda. CBRE expects this trend to accelerate further over the next 10 years. Shinsaibashi has always been a bustling area at the heart of Osaka's retail district. In recent years it has grown to become one of Japan’s most popular locations for both Japanese and inbound visitors. As a result, demand among retailers to open new stores in Shinsaibashi is growing and is likely to extend to its surrounding areas. Over the next 10 years Osaka will see the emergence of a new commercial real estate hub - Yumeshima. This has already been chosen as the site of the 2025 World Expo and is also the prime location candidate for Integrated Resorts. Should this go ahead, the Integrated Resort will generate synergistic effects, with the office-oriented Umeda area and the trade-oriented Shinsaibashi/Namba area, making Yumeshima a new commercial real estate hub in Osaka.
