As the transition to a decarbonized society is accelerating globally, it is more important than ever that businesses achieve sustainable management.
Guided by our philosophy, “Get to a healthier place” we would like to contribute to the establishment of a society where people can live energetic and fulfilling lives.
Regarding responding to climate change, which is an important challenge, in 2021 we started to analyze scenarios in accordance with the TCFD recommendations while supporting the health and security of community members.
The goal of this analysis is to identify risks and opportunities related to climate that affect the continuity of our business and take countermeasures assuming many different possible situations.
We will continue these initiatives in line with the changes in social conditions and the evolution of technology and utilize the results of our analyses in our business strategy, risk management, and internal and external communications.
Fast Fitness Japan, Inc. operates a studio and gym fitness business and an e-commerce product sales business with a focus on its core Anytime Fitness business for which it is the master franchisee.
Environment
To enhance our resilience to climate change and other environmental issues through business
and preserve the rich global environment for future generations,
we are devoted to environmental conservation in our operation of clubs and many other aspects of our business.
Initiatives to reduce
CO2 emissions in club operations
To reduce electricity consumption and CO2emissions at clubs, we are continuing to implement various initiatives, such as the replacement of lighting with LED lights at clubs, the switch to renewable sources of electricity and the consideration of the installation of solar panels.
Aiming to reduce CO2 emissions, clubs have begun demonstration experiments. The club in Naka-Urawa introduced a dimming system that adjusts illuminance according to the time of day and the amount of natural light and the club in Toyokawazoshi installed solar panels to use green electricity.
In addition, we are working to save and produce energy using advanced equipment and various cutting-edge technologies at other experimenting clubs, promoting the installation of this equipment as standard at all clubs nationwide based on the results of these initiatives.
Information disclosure based on the TCFD recommendations
TCFD: Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures.
The Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures was established by the Financial Stability Board (FSB) at the request of G20 to discuss how climate-related information should be disclosed and how financial institutions should respond to it.
In June 2017, the TCFD published its final report recommending that companies and other entities disclose their climate-related risks and opportunities.
Responding to the CDP
Having replied to the CDP questionnaire since 2022, we received a C rating in fiscal 2024.
