Company Profile Company Profile Oricom Co., Ltd. Greetings from the President On behalf of Oricom Co., Ltd., and the Oricom group companies, please accept my heartfelt greetings. We just celebrated our 90th year in business in April 2011. In 1922, our founder, Iwajiro Saito, launched newspaper insert advertising as a new business. Later, by joining forces with many collaborators, we successfully created a new business model, the prototype of the current transportation advertising. Our commitment now is to become a quality company in the communication business by proposing a new communication design. Our driving force lies in the everlasting truth that an advertising company cannot exist without advertisers. This is the spirit of our founder, which never changes. Based on that spirit, we will continue our ongoing commitment to new ideas, creation of new business, and becoming an honest and interesting company. Our advertising clients often say,“ We want to establish new relations with ordinary people by developing new means of communication (account planning, Web, digitization, and other ways).” The Oricom Group will meet this need by leveraging our abilities to make plans based on the viewpoint of ordinary people and put them into practice. In the midst of the severe economy in Japan and throughout the world, we are keenly aware that we need to continue evolving in order to ensure our contribution to the development of our advertising clients via acute and accurate prediction of consumer trends. Without it, we will not be able to gain support in the market. Kazuhiko Masamori President Oricom Co., Ltd. § 1 Oricom Way A Quality Company in the Communication Business Since its business inauguration, Oricom has thrived as an independently owned advertising agency, being immune to external interference.

Since then, we have led the industry in transit advertising and have thrived in this business along with the development and expansion of railway networks in Japan. We still maintain strong business relationships with all the transit advertising agencies nationwide, and our annual sales in transit advertising are the biggest in the industry. 1. We carry out the complicated tasks unique to transit advertising in a reliable manner. In the case of transit advertising, the type of railcars, train service schedules, media specifications, regulatory requirements, availability of advertising space, and the timing for making arrangements are different, depending on electric railway companies.

We make a proposition on the creative plan that can make the best use of the characteristics of transit advertising. In transit advertising, it is necessary to use effective expressions making full use of the characteristics of train advertising and station advertising, respectively. As a pioneer in transit advertising, Oricom has always taken on the challenges of developing the creative unique to transit advertising. In addition, we are engaged in the development of special and new advertising in collaboration with media companies.

It is possible to implement the area targeting by analyzing demographics and geographics in parallel and thus to certainly improve efficiency in marketing activities. 【Examples of Application】 Retails, Services Store development plan, establishment of trading areas, distribution of prospective customers, competitive situation, etc., in case of new multi-store development.
