What we do
We are revolutionizing the snow resort industry in Japan by offering a wide range of services from introducing management systems for snow schools to developing new operations. We are constantly aiming to be a top-level concession business not only by Japanese standards but also by global standards.
Mountain School Management
We operate ski and snowboard schools for international customers, run instructor training programs and manage snow schools. Through our proprietary instructor recruiting and training program, we work with instructors from several nationalities and with versatile language backgrounds.
Our proprietary school management system handles reservations, lessons and instructor activity in an efficient way. This allows us to grow the number of repeaters and manage the business in a profitable way.
