This visit was part of the Osaka welcome initiative held ahead of the "Cerezo Osaka vs. Borussia Dortmund" match taking place on July 29.
While walking through the shopping district, the players experienced the unique atmosphere of Osaka and Japanese tool culture, and enjoyed a sandblasting experience at Chida Glassware.
With the appearance of soccer players active on the world stage, Douguya-suji was filled with more hustle and bustle than usual.
Thank you to everyone from Cerezo Osaka and Borussia Dortmund who visited us!

On Tuesday, July 14, 2026, the Rikutogyo (land procession) of the Namba Yasaka Shrine summer festival marched through the Sennichimae Doguyasuji Shopping Street.
When the parade of portable shrines and lion dances arrived in the shopping district to the sound of taiko drums, many people gathered to watch, taking photos and sending applause.
It was a moment filled with a festive, vibrant atmosphere, allowing us to feel the summer of Minami.
Thank you to everyone who participated in the procession in the heat, everyone involved with Namba Yasaka Shrine, and everyone in the local community.
Today, we conducted a fire drill at Sennichimae Doguyasuji Shopping Street.
To prepare for potential fires and disasters, the shopping district regularly conducts fire and disaster prevention drills.
We learned initial fire suppression training using fire extinguishers, as well as courses on how to use an AED and perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (chest compressions), and how to use a stretcher to safely transport injured persons.
We also reviewed the disaster prevention equipment in the shopping district. We learned about the operational methods and procedures for the arcade of the Doguyasuji Shopping District, which is designed to open and close for smoke evacuation in the event of a fire and for emergency response.
It is important to be able to properly use equipment that we casually use every day in the event of an emergency. Through the drill, this served as an opportunity to deepen knowledge on disaster prevention and raise awareness so that we can respond promptly in an emergency.
With the goal of creating a shopping street that customers and local residents can continue to visit with peace of mind in the future, Sennichimae Doguyasuji Shopping Street will work on disaster prevention and safety measures.
Thank you to everyone who participated and cooperated.
Thank you very much for your continued patronage of the Sennichimae Doguyasuji Shopping Street.
We are thrilled to announce that our shopping district's initiative was prominently featured in the special report "Saving Fading Craftsmanship... Osaka Doguyasuji's Revival Project," streamed on "Osaka NEWS [TV Osaka News]"!
In the program, the video4 minutes and 30 secondsfrom Sennichimae Doguyasuji Shopping Street starts.
Special feature highlights: Connecting craftsmanship through the "Tsunagu Project"
The program featured the "Tsunagu Project," which was launched in 2018 by our shopping district—known for collaborating with Osaka artisans to create specialized tools for chefs—in order to overcome the crisis of a declining number of artisans.
The article introduces the passionate vision and initiative led by Okano, the founder of a signboard specialty shop, who reached out to artisans across the country to have each store plan and develop exceptional products that cannot be mass-produced.
Toward a shopping district where "if you come here, you can start a business" even 10 years from now
At the end of the program, they broadcast our determination for the future: "Just buying and selling loses its appeal. When restaurant operators come to Douya-suji, a single shop is completed. That's the kind of shopping district we aim to be even 10 years from now."
We also received warm words from the studio anchor, who said, "The interaction between craftsmen is wonderful teamwork that leads to the exchange of technology and the preservation of culture."
The Sennichimae Doguyasuji Shopping Street will continue to walk forward as a bridge connecting Japan's wonderful craftsmanship with all of its chefs.
Please be sure to watch the video (from 4 minutes and 30 seconds) and visit the shopping district to look for any special tools that catch your eye.
