• External Growth Strategies
• Internal Growth Strategies

ADL's internal growth initiatives are based on a leasing strategy that has the distinctive mark of a general trading company. Focused on the leasing management operations supplied to it through an agreement with ITOCHU Corporation, this strategy additionally leverages to maximum benefit the Realty and Logistics (R/L) Platform and the Group-wide Merchant Channel (M/C) Platform.

ITOCHU Group's "Goyo-kiki"* offerings provide our tenants with a one-stop solution for their various logistics challenges.

Therefore, ADL can pursue strong tenant relationships and stable portfolio profitability on a long-term basis.

• "Goyo-kiki" comes from a traditional way of doing business and serving customers by proactively asking and attending to customers' needs and challenges to offer solutions.

Leasing System with the Distinctive Mark of a Trading Company

The leasing of logistics real estate owned by ADL is undertaken in collaboration with ITOCHU Corporation’s Construction & Realty Department No. 2 and Logistics & Material Distribution Department, which is itself a logistics operator and maintains business relations with other logistics operators. Moreover, our leasing operations are strengthened by making effective use of ITOCHU Corporation, the ITOCHU Group, and their customer networks, which allows us to identify ahead of our competitors where there are customer needs for expansion, relocation and consolidation of logistics bases.

Internal Growth with the Benefit of Sponsor Support

Through the support of the ITOCHU Group and its extensive customer network, ADL works to strengthen its relationships with tenants and thereby build a portfolio with stable profitability.
