"A dementia patient who had never spoken before smiled and started talking when they saw a delicious-looking dessert!" By working with the government, Seven & i Group has been able to use some of our Denny's stores to provide meeting places for dementia patients. That quote was from a municipal representative who saw an immediate impact from the very first meeting. It's important to respect the dignity and interests of people with dementia. Holding meetings at the familiar and relaxing Denny's setting, while providing a tasty meal, is one way that Seven & i Group is helping patients maximize their quality of life.

Denny's is supporting dementia patients to live their best life. Seven & i Food Systems is working with the Japanese government to provide dementia patients a friendly, casual space to meet and share meals. 15% of people aged over 65 are expected to be diagnosed with dementia by 2050 in Japan. It is important that they have safe spaces to participate in society and feel included. Rather than hold meetings to exchange information and socialize in government-run buildings, 19 Denny's stores across 13 municipalities are working with the government to hold the meetings there instead. It's empowering for the patient, and another way that the Seven & i Group works to support all members of society.

SEVEN VIEW has been instrumental in supporting disaster readiness across 7-Eleven stores in Japan. Here's its story! We sat down to talk to Izuru Nishimura, Executive Officer and General Manager of the Systems Department at Seven-Eleven Japan. SEVEN VIEW was developed back in 2014 when Japan faced a series of natural disasters, including heavy snowstorms, tsunami threat, torrential rains, and volcanic eruptions. "We needed a disaster management system that allowed everyone to share real-time status information,” Nishimura said. 7-Eleven needed a solution so that headquarters, located far away from the disaster-stricken area, could provide the necessary support. SEVEN VIEW was designed to focus on being easy to operate for anyone. With it, the system can even track delivery truck locations and predict which stores will likely be affected by a torrential downpour. Additionally, SEVEN VIEW has a unique feature that displays the area on a map where evacuation orders have been issued. --- This material is from the quarterly shareholders' newsletter "Shikiho".

Interested in learning how Japanese 7-Eleven stores keep customers and staff safe during a disaster? The answer is SEVEN VIEW. This disaster management system was developed by Seven-Eleven Japan and launched in 2015. "VIEW" stands for Visual Information Emergency Web, and it allows 24/7 store monitoring and the ability to update logistics statuses. SEVEN VIEW is now an important tool for maximizing the effectiveness of the Business Continuity Plan (BCP) in the event of a disaster. What's more, it has been developed into community disaster prevention infrastructure through industry-government-academia collaboration projects. --- This material is from the quarterly shareholders' newsletter "Shikiho".
