ReYuu Japan Completes AiPro Share Acquisition
ReYuu is buying repair and buyback storefronts to secure used device supply, which puts it in direct control of the refurbishment and sales cycle rather than depending on outside partners.

ReYuu Japan acquired all issued shares of AiPro from Providers Co., Ltd., the company said Tuesday, paying 399,700 thousand yen. AiPro is now a wholly owned subsidiary with a voting rights ratio of 100.0 percent. ReYuu says it will tie AiPro's repair, buyback, sales, and franchise store operations into its reused mobile business, aiming to lift terminal procurement and expand sales.
With the transfer closed, ReYuu holds 100.0 percent of AiPro's voting rights and AiPro becomes a consolidated subsidiary. The purchase price is unchanged from the 399,700 thousand yen disclosed on August 25.
AiPro runs repair services for smartphones, tablets, PCs, and game consoles, plus buyback and resale of used smartphones and PCs, and a franchise operation. ReYuu said it intends to combine that expertise with its existing reused mobile business, citing procurement, refurbishment and servicing, and sales expansion as the areas where it expects the deal to work.
The company also offered an early example: sourcing reused mobile terminals through AiPro's store network.
