StockBase Co., Ltd.
Toward the nationwide rollout of a goods utilization platform for companies...

We are looking for colleagues who will work with us to expand the platform that provides unique value that “turns a company's ``waste'' into someone's ``thank you''!

Deliver just the amount you need, where you need it

“Towards a society where we can circulate goods and thoughts and share abundance”
This is StockBase's mission. Our company has built a system to smoothly find donation recipients and deliver goods, and provides a donation recipient matching platform for medium-sized and large companies.
https://www.stockbase.co.jp/
For example, in accordance with local regulations, companies have food reserves for each employee for three days. Since it is a food product, it is of course necessary to replace it before the expiry date, but there is no end to the number of companies that incur costs in disposing of it or forcing it to be distributed internally. For companies, it is an unfamiliar task to find donation recipients and adjust the quantity, which increases operational costs...There are many companies who choose to dispose of their items even though they think it is a waste.
 Therefore, we are developing and operating a system that optimizes the "donation behavior" of companies and allows them to make donations easily and effectively. Companies can simply decide what they want to donate, where it will come from, and by when, and the system will match them with non-profit organizations such as food banks and children's cafeterias, allowing them to make donations with social significance!
 Did you understand the concept of turning a company's ``mottainai'' into someone else's ``thank you''?

project overview

Masu. In addition, we will expand our business not only to stockpiles but also to manufacturer inventory and novelty products.
We are proud that our business is a social problem-solving business that eliminates food waste and contributes to the local community. We believe that this is a service that will definitely benefit society, and all of our members are working hard towards it, but we believe that we still need to convey our business values ​​and philosophy to as many people as possible. We are looking for people who sympathize with the society we want to create and are willing to think and work with us on business!

we are such a team

The business idea for StockBase was born from a class project called ``Entrepreneurship Planning'' that aimed to build a business plan while I was in university.As I was developing ideas, I came across a person who delivers surplus calendars used for company sales promotions to senior care facilities every year.I realized that calendars that were no longer needed within the company and were discarded were needed at other locations outside the company. I learned that
After conducting interviews with several companies, we realized that disaster stockpiling supplies were also a disposal issue for companies.Food and water have an expiration date, so when the expiration date approaches, it is necessary to replace the food and water, and the reality is that a large amount of food is wasted each time.Because of this, we thought it would be possible to deliver stockpiled items like calendars to people who need them.
There is a problem in front of me, and I also have an idea to solve it.So I thought it was time to start working on this, so I decided to take a leave of absence from university and turn it into a business.
At first, I started StockBase just to help those in need, but in the future, I hope to expand StockBase throughout Japan and eventually help solve social and environmental issues. We aim to create a business that has a large social impact.

Message from the accepting company

Representative Director Yoshimi Seki
Our company matches organizations that mainly need stockpiled food, as well as unsold inventory from other manufacturers, as well as ``food and novelty items that are still edible but would otherwise be thrown away.''
While there is a lot of demand across Japan, there are many companies that choose to dispose of their products without listening to the voices of those who need them.
In the future, we will aim for a more optimal circulation and aim to develop a business that is closely aligned with the needs of the companies and organizations that will be our users.
We will solve social issues by circulating resources to organizations that need them.I hope that this platform will spread throughout Japan and create a society where it is natural to choose utilization rather than disposal.
As I advance my business, I meet various companies and people, and I feel like I am growing every day.We would like all students to take a step into this environment!
We sincerely look forward to your participation!
