DDBC Promotions
About

Who we are and what we're building.

DBC Promotions, LLC serves as the North American community engagement and outreach arm of CSD Co., Ltd. While supporting CSD's broader initiatives, DBC Promotions conducts independent local operations focused on community development, education, technology, and the trading card hobby -- building upon the extensive community engagement and hobby ecosystem already established by CSD throughout the Tokyo metropolitan area of Japan. Through free youth leagues, community trade nights, learn-to-play workshops, and educational programming, DBC Promotions creates accessible opportunities for youth and families to participate in a rapidly growing hobby. Our programs leverage trading cards and collecting as engaging tools for introducing concepts related to economics, financial literacy, technology, entrepreneurship, and strategic decision-making. DBC Promotions also develops applications and digital tools designed to simplify and enhance experiences within the hobby and related markets. Strategically located in the Dayton area between Cincinnati and Columbus, the organization is positioned to serve as a central hub for Ohio's growing trading card community and to expand its programming throughout the state.

What We Focus On

Education

Cards & Economics and our learn-to-play workshops turn the hobby into a hands-on classroom for financial literacy and strategic thinking.

Technology

We build our own tools — online sign-ups, event scheduling, and pricing resources — to make running and joining programs simple.

The Hobby, Locally

A full-time shop and a weekly Trade Night floor, run by collectors, for collectors, right here in Ohio.
