On July 16, UNIVA Gyro-n (UG) launched its "Google Business Profile Management Service," which provides comprehensive support for managing Google Business Profiles for businesses. This service leverages UG's years of expertise in local SEO to powerfully support businesses in enhancing their online customer acquisition capabilities and driving sales growth. This solution is ideal for companies that lack the resources to manage Google Business Profiles, those seeking professional management, those with insufficient expertise for effective management, those aiming to increase foot traffic, those facing challenges with review management, and agencies providing MEO support but lacking specialized management resources.

On July 17, UNIVA Group held a Human Resources and General Affairs Exchange Meeting. The event brought together HR and general affairs personnel from group companies in Japan via online and offline platforms, where participants shared information ranging from company introductions to current challenges. Going forward, we will continue to build this network, fostering an environment where members can easily consult with one another and explore initiatives that leverage the advantages of being part of the group.

Naomi Oshiro of UNIVA America (UAI) provided sales support for Greeting Life America, a UAI partner, at NY NOW, a large-scale gift show held twice a year at the Jacob K Javits Convention Center in New York. On the day of the event, she stood at the booth and introduced Japanese stationery, small items, and gift items to buyers from across the United States. The ability to handle and examine the products in person, as well as the option to purchase them on the spot, is the biggest attraction of this gift show. This time, products targeting the holiday season and calendars for the coming year were particularly popular. The next NY NOW Winter event is scheduled for February 2026.

In response to the pure desire to "support this region," the local consumption-type hometown tax payment service "Coco Furu" has released a new feature that allows donations without gifts. This feature makes it possible to convey your passionate support for regions without the purpose of receiving gifts in a simple and direct manner. This feature accommodates diverse donation needs and enables municipalities to accept "donations only" without requiring on-site pickup, thereby enhancing flexibility in accepting hometown tax donations. We will continue to support regions through new forms of hometown tax donations encountered during travel.

On August 9-10, Naturally Plus Indonesia (NPID) held its first training camp, "Booth Camp." The 40 members who participated in the camp attended a carotenoid seminar by Indonesian doctors, an IZUMIO manufacturing seminar by Shefco, and other activities such as vision board creation and business training. We hope that these daily activities and events will serve as a catalyst for members to truly love NP and become a major driving force for business success. NPID General Manager Seiji Hosaka pledged to everyone, "We will expand this circle further and guide more Indonesians toward health."

Naturally Plus (NP) has been ranked 43rd in the "DSN Global 100" world ranking of direct selling companies, as announced by "Direct Selling News (DSN)," a specialized media outlet focused on the U.S. direct selling industry. The "DSN Global 100" ranks and introduces direct selling companies worldwide based on the previous year's sales. NP, which entered the U.S. market in 2014, has been ranked every year since 2015. This is a testament to the efforts of our members. We sincerely thank you for your support. Going forward, NP will continue to support your healthy, beautiful, and fulfilling daily lives as a health promotion company dedicated to guiding the entire planet toward better health.

Last month, we welcomed four new NAKAMA members.
Congratulations on joining our group!
