Overview

Kawaguchi Casty (かわぐちキャスティ) is a shopping center located in Sakaecho, Kawaguchi, Saitama Prefecture, Japan. It stands in one of the city's leading commercial districts, near Sogo Kawaguchi and The Price Kawaguchi, and is about a one-minute walk from the east exit of JR Kawaguchi Station. The facility is owned by the Kawaguchi Imono Kogyo Kyodo Kumiai (Kawaguchi Casting Industry Cooperative), a local industrial cooperative, and is operated by Marubeni Real Estate Management Co., Ltd. The name "Casty" is a portmanteau of "CAST" (as in performers) and "CITY" (as in city). The site was formerly occupied by the Kawaguchi Sangyo Kaikan (Kawaguchi Industry Hall), a building whose first floor housed the former Saitama Bank Kawaguchi Branch. The current shopping center was built on that location and retains the cooperative's ownership. The center contains 34 tenant stores across multiple floors, including shops such as Zoff (eyewear), HIS (travel), Chuo Contact (contact lenses), Cafe de Crea, and Shimamura Gakki (musical instruments). It offers a range of services including retail, dining, and lifestyle services, with opening hours from 10:00 to 21:00. The facility also provides underground parking, charging 200 yen per 30 minutes. As a community-oriented shopping center, Kawaguchi Casty serves both local residents and commuters passing through Kawaguchi Station. Its tenant mix and events, such as eyewear replacement campaigns and music lessons, reflect a focus on everyday consumer needs. The center's official website provides shop news, event information, and access details, reinforcing its role as a local commercial hub.
