What does Lawson opening a vehicle overnight parking facility mean? The unknown compatibility between convenience stores and RV parks
Original source: WEB CARTOP

Japanese convenience store chain Lawson is experimentally operating seven stores in Minamiboso, Chiba, as RV parks where vehicle overnight stays are permitted. The trial runs from July 14, 2025, to June 30, 2026, with a fee of 2500 yen per space per use, booked via 'RV-Park.JP'. This initiative addresses a shortage of legal overnight parking spots, leveraging the 24-hour staffing, clean toilets, and on-site retail of convenience stores to meet growing demand for vanlife travel.
