Birth of a hotel management company
with expertise in both real estate investment
and management
Polaris Holdings
Star Asia, which boasts an excellent track record in real estate investment, and Polaris,
which has an established reputation in hotel operations.
Polaris Holdings Corporation is the result of the fusion of these two companies.
Polaris Holdings maximizes the value of its investments through highly profitable
businesses that apply the perspectives of fund management to hotel operations.
“100 years strong” × “high-quality investment management”
Established in 1912
Initially founded in 1912 as a textile company. While we are a “centenary company” with a legacy of more than 100 years, we have continually updated our business model in line with emerging trends, with a focus on real estate and hotel businesses.
Partnering with Star Asia Group
In November 2018, through a capital and business alliance with the Star Asia Group, we launched a highly profitable hotel operation that leverages management information of the highest quality. We have grown to operate 30 hotels with 5,117 rooms nationwide as of June 2021.
Integrating hotel business with real estate business
Our mission is to maximize the value of our customers by integrating hotel business and investment. Making this as our focus, we have established a business model that utilizes our real estate investment management know-how in hotel operations. We have also introduced an “owner-operator model” that can be applied to the management of hotels owned by the company, and are strengthening flexible and rational investment management by employing a variety of business models, including outsourced management and franchise models. We will pursue a “strong profit structure” that is unaffected by external trends.
