ASTY Gifu

ASTY Gifu (アスティ岐阜) is a retail and dining complex located directly at JR Gifu Station in Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture, Japan. It occupies space under the railway viaduct at the station, a format common to Japanese station-front commercial development, and is operated by Nagoya Station Area Development Co., Ltd. (名古屋ステーション開発株式会社), a company whose core business is the development and management of commercial facilities connected to or adjacent to railway stations. ASTY Gifu is one of a family of ASTY-branded station facilities managed by the same operator, alongside ASTY Ogaki, ASTY Ichinomiya, ASTY Mikawa-Anjo, ASTY Okazaki, ASTY Kanayama, ASTY Tsurumai, ASTY Chikusa, ASTY Ozone, ASTY Kasugai, ASTY Takakuraji, ASTY Tajimi, ASTY Kuwana, ASTY Matsusaka, and Tsu Cham. The facility is arranged over three floors and mixes food, retail, and services aimed at commuters, students, and local residents. Its tenant roster includes fast food and cafés such as Mos Burger, Doutor Coffee Shop, Vie de France, Mister Donut, Starbucks Coffee, and Excelsior Caffé; restaurants and izakaya including Saizeriya, Ippudo, Yoshinoya, Soup Stock Tokyo, Oraga Soba, Link Hat, Pronto, and Akai Tori; food and gift retailers such as ENA Kawakamiya, Yoro-ken, Inokuchi Coffee Roastery, Goza Soro, GODIVA, and Tamaiya Hanare; a supermarket (Seijo Ishii); a convenience store (FamilyMart); a drugstore (Matsumoto Kiyoshi); a bookstore (Sanseido Bookstore); and service tenants such as QB House. The floor guide organizes these into categories including restaurants and cafés, bento and takeout, souvenirs, fashion and sundries, food and convenience, and services. ASTY Gifu functions as a station-integrated shopping destination rather than a standalone mall. Its operator describes its mission as making stations more attractive places and creating facilities loved by the local community, and it supports tenants through day-to-day operations, sales-promotion campaigns, advertising, and publicity. The facility also participates in the TOKAI STATION POINT loyalty program, and its official site publishes news and event notices, shop news, and a floor guide. Because it sits under the viaduct at Gifu Station, it benefits from direct passenger flow from one of the region's key railway hubs.

ASTY Gifu is a commercial facility located under the viaduct of JR Gifu Station in Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture, Japan. It is operated by Nagoya Station Area Development Co., Ltd. (名古屋ステーション開発株式会社), a company whose business includes the development and operation of commercial facilities directly connected to or adjacent to railway stations, as well as the development and management of facilities under railway viaducts. The ASTY brand is used across a chain of station commercial facilities managed by the same operator, primarily in the Tokai region. According to the operator's company information, its station-building business manages and operates ASTY and Cham facilities at major JR Central stations, and the ASTY Gifu facility is listed among the ASTY locations alongside ASTY Ogaki, ASTY Ichinomiya, ASTY Mikawa-Anjo, ASTY Okazaki, ASTY Kanayama, ASTY Tsurumai, ASTY Chikusa, ASTY Ozone, ASTY Kasugai, ASTY Takakuraji, ASTY Tajimi, ASTY Kuwana, and ASTY Matsusaka, as well as Tsu Cham. The operator describes its approach to developing commercial facilities as beginning with research two to three years before a new development or renewal, including on-site observation of station users by day of week and time of day, in order to formulate a concept that appeals to target customers. It then negotiates with prospective tenants, agrees contract terms such as contract length and rent, and works with design firms on the overall facility design. During the opening phase, construction proceeds while customer flow lines are checked and signage is installed; after construction, a briefing is held for tenants covering layout, operating rules, and fire and crime prevention. In the operational phase, the company maintains and manages the facility, handles daily operations, and supports tenants through sales-promotion campaigns and advertising. ASTY Gifu itself is arranged over three floors. Its floor guide lists categories including restaurants and cafés, bento and takeout, souvenirs, fashion and sundries, food and convenience stores, and services and other. The tenant mix spans international and domestic chains and local businesses. On the first floor, tenants include Mos Burger, OSOZAi + CAFE Mino Misho, Doutor Coffee Shop, Vie de France, FamilyMart Asty Gifu Station Store, Matsumoto Kiyoshi, Ena Kawakamiya Kuriichi Kuriza, Yoro-ken, Inokuchi Coffee Roastery, Mister Donut, Seijo Ishii, QB House, Goza Soro, GODIVA, Omochikaeri Zushi Omiya Edokko Zushi, Tamaiya Hanare, Cafe SAN, and Sugakiya. The second floor includes Saizeriya, Shin Jidai, Ippudo, PLUSTA Asty Gifu, Soup Stock Tokyo, Otsukimido/Yuzukiyo, Yoshinoya, Oraga Soba, Nagasaki Champon Link Hat, Pronto, Akai Tori, and Excelsior Caffé. The third floor includes Starbucks Coffee and Sanseido Bookstore. The facility's official website publishes news and events, shop news, and a floor guide. Recent news items include an event booth notice dated September 25, 2026, a notice about event space dated March 27, 2025, and information about stores accepting TOKAI STATION POINT dated September 1, 2024. Shop news items include a signing event at Sanseido Bookstore, a pop-up shop by artist Phoca at Sanseido Bookstore, seasonal menu items at Soup Stock Tokyo and Oraga Soba, and product news from Yoro-ken. The operator states that it aims to create facilities that are loved by the local community and that support daily life, and that it will energize Nagoya Station, the gateway to the Tokai region, by providing a wide range of services. ASTY Gifu serves as the Gifu Station counterpart to this station-commercial strategy.
