January 26th was the day Ito-Yokado completely withdrew from Niigata Prefecture.
Although it was the last day, there was no closing ceremony, so the final version of the in-store announcement was recorded in advance.
It was broadcast in the store at 18:30.
However, a brief greeting was made as many citizens gathered in front of the store at closing time.
On that day, some brave souls showed up with LEDs showing Yokado and Marudai electronic signs on their bags.
