Jing-Jan Retail Business Co., Ltd. Sets a New Standard for Sustainable Retail with Dual Honors at Asia Pacific Enterprise Awards 2026 Taiwan

TAIPEI, Oct. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Jing-Jan Retail Business Co., Ltd. (Qsquare) has received two distinctions at the Asia Pacific Enterprise Awards (APEA) 2026 Taiwan, organized by Enterprise Asia, winning the Corporate Excellence and Corporate Integrity and Governance Excellence awards. The recognition reflects Qsquare's ability to combine retail innovation, sustainable growth, and disciplined governance in building urban lifestyle destinations that serve both customers and communities.

Established in 2007, Qsquare operates more than 700 brand counters across its department stores, including Qsquare Taipei and Qsquare Xiaobitan. Its customer-focused strategy has evolved through Taiwan region-first pop-up stores, Japanese fashion brands, eco-aesthetic zones, and immersive experiences. By applying big data and artificial intelligence to targeted marketing and membership management, Qsquare has developed an Online-Merge-Offline (OMO) retail model that strengthened customer engagement and contributed to increased foot traffic in 2025.

Sustainability remains central to Qsquare's growth strategy. Its 2025 greenhouse gas emissions declined by 12.11%, while annual purchases of 792,000 kWh of green electricity raised renewable energy use to 7.15% of total electricity consumption. The company also invested in employee development, averaging 8.3 training hours per employee and conducting Sustainability Empowerment Workshops.

The Corporate Integrity and Governance Excellence award along with the Corporate Excellence award further highlight Qsquare's governance framework, supported by its Code of Business Integrity, ethical standards for directors and executives, independent director oversight, and Audit and Remuneration Committees. Its Automated Internal Control Self-Assessment Dashboard enables management and audit units to monitor high-risk processes and key control points, while regular compliance audits and transparent investor communications and financial disclosures support the company's commitment to regulatory compliance and ethical business practices.

Together, the awards demonstrate Qsquare's ability to translate innovation and sustainability into business performance while maintaining governance standards that support responsible and resilient growth.
