BloomZ Stock Skyrockets On M-NEXT Alliance: Retail’s Buoyant

BloomZ Inc.(BLMZ) shares defied the broader market downturn on Friday, soaring over 52% after it partnered with M-NEXT Holdings Co.

BloomZ is a Japanese firm known for its voice talent management, audio production, and virtual entertainment work. M-NEXT is the parent company of O&A Co., the operator of the popular Japanese trading card retailer "Ryusei no Arashi."

The collaboration will blend BloomZ’s expertise in VTuber and sound production with M-NEXT’s retail operations, aiming to create improved customer experiences and foster stronger fan interaction within physical retail environments.

Under the new alliance, BloomZ plans to set up open-layout, radio-inspired studio zones within "Ryusei no Arashi" retail locations. 

These areas will feature live appearances by VTubers and voice talent associated with BloomZ, aiming to enhance the in-store experience.

The partnership outlines several areas of joint effort, including the planning and promotion of limited-time products and exclusive experiences at the stores. 

The two companies will also run coordinated monthly marketing campaigns driven by digital personalities from BloomZ's talent roster.

Beyond domestic growth, the companies plan to work together on extending “Ryusei no Arashi” retail operations internationally to bring Japanese pop culture and card gaming culture to a broader audience.

BloomZ went public in July 2024, raising $5.38 million through the sale of 1.25 million shares at $4.30 each.

On Stocktwits, retail sentiment around BloomZ remained in ‘extremely bullish’ territory with extremely high message volume.

A Stocktwits user expects the shares to hit $1 this month.

BloomZ stock has shed 64% year-to-date and 91.6% in the last 12 months.
