Fukuoka REIT Corporation

Fukuoka REIT Corporation is Japan's first region-specific Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT), established on July 2, 2004. The trust primarily invests in real estate assets located in the Kyushu region, including Fukuoka, Yamaguchi, and Okinawa Prefectures. Its portfolio comprises various property types, such as commercial facilities, office buildings, and residential properties, all strategically selected to leverage the unique characteristics of the region's real estate market.

The REIT's investment strategy emphasizes stable earnings over the medium to long term, aiming to provide consistent dividends to its unitholders. This approach is supported by its asset management company, Fukuoka Realty Co., Ltd., which is well-versed in the local market dynamics and is backed by prominent regional entities like Fukuoka Jisho Co., Ltd. and Kyushu Electric Power Co., Inc. These partnerships enable Fukuoka REIT Corporation to acquire and manage properties effectively, ensuring a diversified and resilient portfolio.

In recent developments, Fukuoka REIT Corporation has expanded its footprint by acquiring properties in Nagasaki City, marking its first investment in the area. This acquisition aligns with the trust's strategy to broaden its presence within the Kyushu region, capitalizing on emerging opportunities and contributing to the region's economic growth. The trust's commitment to sustainability is also evident through its ESG initiatives, reflecting a holistic approach to real estate investment that considers environmental, social, and governance factors.
