Sunny Shop (サティオ店) was the Sunny sales company (dealers 販売会社), organized for the purpose of selling the revolutionary people's car the Datsun B10 Sunny 1000 of 1966. It was intended that new dealers would be organized instead of selling the Sunnys at the existing Datsun Bluebird dealers.

History
Datsun dealers sold the traditional cars named Bluebird. Then in 1966 the Sunny Shops were created. Prince of course also had its own sales organization. In 1970 Cherry Shop dealerships were formed to sell the new Nissan Cherry FF car. Apparently there was also a Laurel sales organization for the mid-size sedans.

Nissan Sunny Kyoritsu Sales Co., Ltd. (日産サニー共立販売株式会社) sold more than 30,000 cars.
In time these sales organizations went through various mergers (for example Cherry Shops merged with Prince Shops) and in 1999 most became Nissan Blue Stage or Nissan Red Stage dealerships. Then around 2007 the two separate Red and Blue dealerships merged and are know known as "Nissan Red & Blue Stage" some with signs in English with that literally wording. Note that a few dealers did not merge and so retain unique rights.
