SRK-OH donates land
- Land donated to local municipality for Soccer Stadium
As part of its 35th anniversary celebration, SumiRiko Ohio, Inc. (SRK-OH), a group company headquartered in Ohio, USA, donated a portion of its land (approximately 25,000 ㎡) to the local government as a token of gratitude to its local employees and the community that has supported the company for 35 years.
The village of Bluffton, Ohio, where SRK-OH is located, is a small village with a population of about 4,000, yet the youth soccer population is as high as 200 and the soccer fever is extremely high. The existing site was not large enough to hold soccer tournaments, so they have been renting a site at a local university to hold the tournament. A new soccer stadium to be built on the donated land is being considered to be named after SRK-OH.
