Dear members,

University of Tokyo Consumers' Cooperative

Notice of closure of the Observatory store

　Thank you for your continued patronage of our Co-op Observatory Store (purchasing and dining area)

　We apologize for any inconvenience caused, but our Co-op Observatory store (purchasing and dining)

We will be closing on Friday, August 8, 2025

　Our Co-op Observatory store has been responsible for providing part of the welfare services for the people of Taichung since 1966 (Showa 41). However, due to the recent rise in raw material costs and various logistics costs, the store is now facing a very difficult business situation and it has become difficult to continue operating the store any longer

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to everyone in the city, and we ask for your understanding and consideration of the circumstances

　We will provide further information regarding how to return the investments we have received and how to make various applications after the store closes

　Thank you very much for using our Co-op Observatory store for so many years
