Komehyo's half-year profit more than triples as Japan's luxury resale market keeps expanding
Komehyo Holdings, Japan's largest listed buyer and reseller of used luxury goods, posted a record first-half profit as both its retail sales and its buying from individuals grew -- another sign, alongside last week's results from Second Retailing, that Japan's secondhand luxury trade is growing well beyond the pace of the broader retail market.

Komehyo Holdings Co., Ltd. (コメ兵ホールディングス) said on 12 November that revenue for the six months to 30 September 2026 rose 33.5% to ¥127.68bn, operating profit rose 167.6% to ¥4.71bn and net profit rose 260.3% to ¥2.44bn.
