SHOWGOLF attracted attention by acquiring 100% of the shares from Daiwa Securities Group, one of Japan's top 100 companies in 2023, and this time it achieved the highest growth rate in the entire Kyushu region compared to the previous year. In just one year, it rose to the top position in the entire Kyushu area.
