What Alps Business Creation does

Alps Business Creation Co., Ltd. (株式会社アルプスビジネスクリエーション, ABC) is a Japanese diversified services company founded in 1994 and operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tokyo Stock Exchange Prime-listed Alps Alpine Co., Ltd. The company runs three business segments: Business Support (HR/staffing via "ABC Human Support," employee assistance / mental health counseling via "ABC Mental Health Support," and corporate training programs), Construction & Facility Management (cleanroom design and construction with airflow and temperature distribution simulation, factory layout and utility infrastructure, building construction and renovation, and preventive maintenance of HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and fire safety systems — operated under the "ABC Facilities" brand), and Senior Support (welfare equipment rental, fitting, and sales; home care support; and the "Machitore" rehabilitation-focused day service — operated under the "ABC Senior Support" brand). ABC also serves as a Registered Support Organization for the Specified Skilled Worker visa category and has partnered with JICA's Responsible Accepting Platform for Foreign Workers.

The company is headquartered in Ota Ward, Tokyo, and operates a regional branch network spanning Greater Tokyo, Tohoku (Iwate and Miyagi), Niigata, and Fukushima prefectures, with dedicated sales offices (Nagaoka, Furukawa/Osaki, Sendai, Ogawara, Soma, Iwaki, Morioka, Shiwa, Ichinoseki, Kanegasaki) supporting both corporate and individual customers. Its go-to-market combines direct field sales through these regional offices, inside sales via phone and email for training enrollment and inquiries, and event-driven demand generation through public seminars, workshops, and welfare equipment exhibitions. Training programs are publicly priced at ¥19,800 per person-day and ¥35,000 per person-two-day (excluding tax), while construction and welfare equipment pricing is quote-based.

Revenue mechanics span one-time project revenue (construction, cleanroom), recurring fees (HR/staffing, welfare equipment rental, maintenance contracts), and per-unit professional services (training, care planning). In 2025 the company executed a portfolio rationalization, divesting three community-based day care services (Arupusu no Ie to Spica, Second House Honami to Mind, and Machinakaya/Suwamachi to World Stay) while consolidating the Tokamachi branch into Uonuma and continuing to expand its welfare equipment catalogue with new product launches through 2026. The company holds multiple government certifications relevant to its regulated services, including Eruboshi Stage 3 (women's workplace participation), Kurumin (childcare support), and Tokyo "Heartfelt Barrier-Free" registration.
