IBank, a group company of the Fukuoka Financial Group, Inc. announced its entrance into general trade business in the Kyushu area. The company will curate quality crafts, food products, and other items that are mainly produced by the local clients of FFG and its group companies and rebrand them before selling online to connect better with younger generations. It will collaborate with popular designers and apparel brands and aims to list more than 200 items by its opening in October. Reflecting the financial situations of local mid-small manufacturers, the sales commission will be approximately 10% of the price, which is much lower than other major e-commerce services.
