Since the Lions Mansion Akasaka first debuted in 1968, DAIKYO has supplied the largest number of condominiums in Japan, with a cumulative total of 381,551 units*, mainly for families. While DAIKYO has led the industry with products tailored to customer needs ahead of its competitors, the business environment surrounding the Lions Mansion condominiums has seen gradual changes as family structures and customer values have constantly become diverse. In response, DAIKYO has rebranded its condominium brand in order to evolve from simply being a company that develops condominiums to a company that creates the value of tomorrow.

The Lions Mansion condominiums have gained recognition as a well-known brand that offers safe, secure, and high-quality housing. THE LIONS brand aims to add sophistication and luxury to these qualities and transform into a brand that takes "lifestyle" one step beyond to one that people desire. With the brand vision "NEXT ONE" as the internal action guidelines and "Life has value" as the brand statement, THE LIONS will create new value in the lives of its customers by providing not only an abundance of physical commodities but also a "good life" for the people who live in its condominiums.

In addition, DAIKYO will launch a new DAIKYO NEXT ONE PROJECT in which all employees will participate in order to build and promote THE LIONS brand. Through lectures by outside experts and other initiatives, DAIKYO will hone employees' understanding of and sensibility toward the values of the residents and materialize designs that will be desired by them and ideas for the lifestyle of tomorrow.

DAIKYO will continue to create pleasant residences that meet the needs of its customers.

* According to the ranking of the cumulative number of condominiums supplied by each property owner in Japan (as of December 2022), based on DAIKYO research.
