What Mori Trust Building Management Co. does

Mori Trust Building Management Co., Ltd. is a Tokyo-based building management and operations company that was established in April 2002 as a spin-off of Mori Trust Co., Ltd.'s management and interior construction departments, and has been a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mori Trust Co., Ltd. since August 2007. The company manages 49 office and residential buildings totaling approximately 1.82 million m² and 25 hotel and resort properties with approximately 3,150 guest rooms across Japan, including premium assets such as the Marunouchi Trust Tower complex, Kamiyacho Trust Tower, Sendai Trust Tower, Toranomon World Gate, Tokyo Marriott Hotel, The Tokyo Edition Toranomon, and Laforet resort properties. Its portfolio spans Mori Trust Group-developed assets concentrated in Tokyo (Marunouchi, Toranomon, Shiodome, Shinagawa, Akasaka, Kyobashi, Shimbashi), Sendai, and the Kansai region (Osaka, Kyoto).

The company operates three core service lines: Planning & Consulting (project support, management planning, renovation planning, environmental/energy planning, and due diligence using LCC analysis), Building Management & Operations (comprehensive facility management covering equipment, security, cleaning, maintenance, and construction), and Interior Design & Renovation (~600 construction projects annually). Underlying technology includes the Trust Area Management Service (TAMS) center, a 24/7, 365-day real-time monitoring and emergency dispatch system, and a grid-type Business Continuity Plan (BCP) linking three regional bases in Tokyo, Sendai, and Osaka.

Headcount stands at 196 employees as of August 2025.

Mori Trust Building Management generates revenue through three B2B streams: managed services contracts for facility management of Mori Trust Group and select external properties (largest stream), professional services fees for planning/consulting engagements, and construction revenue from interior renovation projects. The company is registered as a private corporation with ¥100 million in capital and operates through enterprise field sales with direct contracts to property owners. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is set through individual negotiations.
