Minoh Logistics Center is located approximately 2.2 km from the Mino-Todoromi Interchange on the Shin-Meishin Expressway and within 25 km from the center of Osaka City. With all the lines between the Takatsuki Interchange and Yawata-Kyotanabe Junction, and the Joyo Junction and Otsu Junction of the Shin-Meishin Expressway currently under construction, smooth delivery between Nagoya and Kobe is enabled and convenience of transportation is expected to be further enhanced in the future. In addition, the surrounding area is suitable for securing employment due to population growth arising partly from new residential land development in the area.
The building has a total floor area of 64,464.95 m² with a minimum lot size of approximately 7,600 m² and can hold up to five tenants. The first and second floors have slopes and berths^* that can accommodate up to 60 10-ton and some 4-ton trucks at the same time. The building also features six cargo elevators and six vertical conveyors, enabling efficient storage and operation.
In the facility, there is a cafeteria for employees to have lunch and take a break. The cafeteria can be used for a variety of purposes and numbers of people, with counter seating, sofa seating, and an outdoor terrace. Also, the entrance and other common areas are white and wood-grained to create a bright and relaxing space, and air conditioning has been installed on the fourth floor to create a comfortable working environment.
In addition, eight electric vehicle (EV) charging stands have been installed on the premises, and electricity from 100% renewable energy sources will be supplied to the entire facility, including the tenants' blocks.
To date, ORIX Group has invested in and developed 44 logistics facilities, mainly in the Tokyo, Nagoya, and Osaka areas. It will continue to develop evolving supply chain strategies and environmentally considerate logistics facilities.

1. Overview of Minoh Logistics Center
(1) Excellent location as a logistics hub covering the Kansai region
Minoh Logistics Center is located approximately 2.2 km from the Mino-Todoromi Interchange on the Shin-Meishin Expressway and within 25 km from the center of Osaka City. The facility can be used as a delivery hub, not only for the Kansai region but also for a wider area, as the Shin-Meishin Expressway is scheduled to open between the Takatsuki Interchange and Yawata-Kyotanabe Junction and the Joyo Junction and Otsu Junction. The nearby Minoh Shinmachi Residential Area in Osaka has a growing population due to the subdivision of residential land and the establishment of an integrated elementary and junior high school in the area, and is an advantageous environment in terms of securing labor for tenant companies.

(2) Common areas feature a cafeteria and outdoor terrace
The cafeteria is designed with a white and wood-grain based interior to create a bright and relaxing atmosphere. Counter seating and sofa seating are available for a variety of needs. In front of the outdoor terrace, which is connected to the cafeteria, there is a garden where seasonal scenery such as fresh greenery and fall foliage can be enjoyed.

(3) Providing Electricity from 100% Renewable Energy Sources
A solar power generation system with a capacity of 1,778.22 kW has been installed on the roof of the Minoh Logistics Center under the power purchase agreement (PPA) model^*1, and the generated electricity will be consumed within the facility.
Also, in the event of power insufficiency during the night or due to weather conditions, ORIX Corporation will supply electricity using Non-fossil Certificates (with tracking certification) to cover the power to be used in the facility with electricity from 100% renewable energy sources. In addition, the environmental value of electricity from 100% renewable energy sources will be provided to tenants upon request. Excess electricity will be sold using the FIT program^*2.
Installation of the solar power generation system at the Minoh Logistics Center is scheduled to begin in June 2022.
