Overview
OPSIA misumi (オプシアミスミ) is a commercial shopping complex located in Usuki 2-chome, Kagoshima City, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan. It opened on November 8, 2007, and is operated by the local company Misumi. The facility is anchored by a MaxValu supermarket (operated by AEON Kyushu) and Books Misumi, which is described as the largest bookstore in Kagoshima Prefecture. The mall was the last large-scale commercial facility to open in the wave of development that swept southern Kagoshima City, particularly along the Sangyo Road, from around 2006. The mall serves the local community with a mix of retail, dining, and event spaces. Its official website and social media channels promote seasonal sales, events, and tenant information. The first floor includes a food court and a central event plaza, which hosts live performances, promotional events, and community activities. The mall also operates a loyalty program called "Payどんオプシアポイント" (Paydon OPSIA Points), which can be earned through campaigns and digital stamp rallies and used at participating stores within the facility. OPSIA misumi is accessible by public transportation: about a 10-minute walk from Usuki Station on the JR Ibusuki-Makurazaki Line, about a 7-minute walk from Usuki 1-chome tram stop on Kagoshima City Tram Line 1, and about a 5-minute walk from the "OPSIA-mae" or "Minamiko" bus stops on Kagoshima Kotsu buses. The mall also provides parking, including a parking area on the Marine Port Kagoshima side that opened in September 2026 according to the official website. As a regional shopping center, OPSIA misumi plays a role in the daily life of Kagoshima residents, offering groceries, books, dining, and family-oriented events. Its name combines "OPSIA" with "misumi," reflecting its connection to the Misumi group and its location in the Misumi area of Kagoshima.
History
OPSIA misumi opened on November 8, 2007, in Usuki 2-chome, Kagoshima City, Kagoshima Prefecture. It was developed by Misumi, a local company, and was the last large-scale commercial facility to open in a series of developments that had been progressing in southern Kagoshima City, especially along the Sangyo Road, since around 2006. The mall was built with two core tenants: a MaxValu supermarket operated by AEON Kyushu and Books Misumi, which is noted as the largest bookstore in Kagoshima Prefecture. Since its opening, OPSIA misumi has functioned as a community shopping center for the southern part of Kagoshima City, offering a mix of retail, dining, and services. Over the years, it has hosted numerous events, campaigns, and seasonal promotions. The mall has also adapted to digital trends, introducing the "Payどんオプシアポイント" loyalty point program, which can be earned through campaigns and digital stamp rallies and used at participating stores. In September 2026, a new parking area on the Marine Port Kagoshima side opened, improving access for visitors. The facility continues to be managed by Misumi and remains active as of the latest available information.
