Simultaneous with the completion of this transaction, effective the same day, Yosemite1 absorbed and merged with CMJ, with CMJ as the absorbed entity and Yosemite1 as the surviving entity. Subsequently, Yosemite1 has changed its corporate name to “Catalina Marketing Japan K.K.”
CMJ has one of the largest retail media networks in the food supermarket and drugstore markets and provides cross-industry marketing support through collaboration among consumers, retailers, and manufacturers. In 2025, CMJ launched “AOUMI”, a new brand, and as a leading brand company in the retail media market, CMJ is expected to achieve further growth.
BIPROGY is a leading Japanese IT solution provider that has positioned the retail sector as one of the key pillars of its growth strategy. Within this sector, BIPROGY is focused on expanding its service business in the four areas of “Store DX”（Digital Transformation), “D2C”(Direct to Consumer), “CX” (Customer Experience), and “OMO” (Online Merges with Offline). In addition to its existing core business solutions, BIPROGY is developing new services centered on AI and data utilization.
By leveraging the complementary strengths of both companies, CMJ and BIPROGY aim to generate significant business synergies. This collaboration is expected to realize a "consumer and community-centric distribution demand chain" by highly utilizing consumer purchasing and behavior data and digitally connecting data from retail sales locations to the supply chain. We are confident that CMJ will achieve further enhancement of its corporate value through these developments.
