TOKYO--()--Warehouse TERRADA (Shinagawa, Tokyo / CEO: Yoshihisa Nakano) announces that we will begin offering its “minikura” cloud storage system, where any user can have his/her own warehouse, one box at a time, to users outside of Japan.

Since the foundation in 1950, Warehouse TERRADA has been cultivating better storage techniques and making proactive action on the capital investment in order to store and preserve items under the best environment. Expanding our business beyond the traditional warehousing, we are currently pursuing the preservation and restoration techniques to raise the value of items that require high expertise such as wines, artworks and media and pass it on to the next generations. Also we are developing a business to output the new culture by making a full use of our knowledge as a professional in space creation. “minikura,” one of our key services, allows customers to pack a specialized ("minikura" original) box with items they wish to store then send it to minikura, where dedicated staff will photograph each item with the utmost care before storing them in an environment complete with temperature and humidity controls and security. Items stored are listed online with photos, accessible via PCs, smartphones and tablets. Users can confirm their items anytime, anywhere, and can request to take them out from storage as needed, either individually or by the box.

With minikura, a Japan-based cloud storage service, Warehouse TERRADA will continue working to proactively provide information and improve convenience for users overseas as well as in Japan.
