MIMARU Osaka Shinsaibashi NORTH will host the Meet with Osaka Products Vol. 2 pop-up store from Monday, December 16, 2024, to Monday, March 31, 2025. The store offers Made in Osaka-certified products that were certified as such by the Governor of Osaka Prefecture.
APARTMENT HOTEL MIMARU has set "connecting guests with the local communities" as one of its sustainability initiatives and actively promotes exciting events to achieve this goal. With the 2025 World Expo (Osaka-Kansai Expo) in mind, staff will introduce selected products certified by the Governor of Osaka Prefecture in the lobby. Aiming to connect Osaka with the world, guests will be able to experience the passion and commitment of manufacturers and Osaka's charm firsthand.
■ A Collaboration to Introduce the Best Things About Osaka to Guests From All Over the World
In September of last year, the first collaboration pop-up store was held at MIMARU Osaka Shinsaibashi North with the goal of letting guests experience Made in Osaka-certified brand products in person. Visiting guests were able to learn about the quality of these products firsthand, something which cannot be fully conveyed over the Internet. Finding a special item that you would not have discovered without coming to Osaka creates a whole new level of appreciation for your trip. Conveying the appeal of Osaka's craftsmanship was very well-received by our international guests, which led to this second collaboration event.
