Hiroro (Hirosaki-shi station square) On the 28th of July, sports equipment store "Sportiva Hirosaki store" (TEL 0172-26-5121) opened.

With the first store in Otaru, Hokkaido, this is the first store outside Hokkaido. Approximately 2500 sports equipment items are available. The store area is 70 tsubo.

The manager, Azusa Kodama, is from Hokkaido. In high school, I belonged to Hirosaki Gakuin Seiai High School (Haragadaira Yamamoto) gymnastics club, and went on to Tohoku Women's University to study gymnastics even after graduation. Kodama says, "I returned to Hokkaido to work, but returned to Hirosaki for the first time in 12 years."

“We started preparing to open the store about a year ago, and went to visit Hirosaki many times,” says Kodama. “Hiroro was Daiei at the time. The atmosphere of the city changed and it became beautiful,” he recalls. Looking at the students who are doing club activities, he says that he wants to support him by remembering his high school days.

"In a product lineup like a sports general store, staff with specialized knowledge will give advice. I want people who play sports to use things that do not compromise. Limited products that Hirosaki does not have yet. I want to increase".

“Hirosaki is a second home that makes people feel happy about themselves when they hear their name in sports. Because there are many public facilities inside Hiroro, there are many events, so we are collaborating through sports. If so, then show motivation.

Business hours are from 10:00 to 20:00.
