Auto auction business
Auto auction sites support trouble-free circulation of used vehicles. USS currently supports bidding from outside the premises through dedicated terminal and internet auctions around 19 auction sites throughout Japan.
Used vehicle purchasing and selling business
The Rabbit Car Network is launching chains and franchises in all areas of Japan as stores specializing in the purchase of used vehicles from end users. This is the backbone to lively auto auctions. Although most of the vehicles that are bought are sold at auction, some are sold through retail channels.
Recycling business
The Recycling Segment centers upon two Group companies. ARBIZ recycles end-of-life automobiles as well as small electronics and other spent products. SMART specializes in the dismantling and recycling of plants and other related equipment.
