Environmental ActivitiesFujisaki is promoting activities to restore the landscape lost in Great East Japan Earthquake and protect the landscape of the beautiful forest city Sendai.

Tree-planting and tree-raising activities
We are engaged in tree-planting activities and tree-planting activities to regenerate greens in coastal areas affected by severe damage in Great East Japan Earthquake. Not only employees from Fujisaki, but also OBs and OGs participate, planting trees such as Japanese black pine to grow into disaster prevention forests that protect the area.

In addition, we sell original eco-bags made from recycled PET bottles, and donate a portion of the proceeds to forest conservation activities.
Implementation of Clean Campaigns
Fujisaki is collecting garbage in nearby shopping streets as part of its community contribution activities.
We have been invited by a union from a labor union in Sendai Mitsukoshi, which has been dedicated to clean-up activities, and started as a joint cleaning activity in June 2020 as the Environment Enhancement Month. The cleaning area alternately goes back and forth every month around Sendai Mitsukoshi and Fujisaki. Employees of both companies can also connect with each other, and we have fun activities every time.
In the future, we will continue to take the initiative in creating a beautiful city at any time, aiming for environmental activities throughout the Ichibancho shopping street.
Since its founding in 1819, Fujisaki has been passionate about creating a department store that is loved and trusted with its primary mission to contribute to the development of the region. Throughout the year, we are working to contribute to various communities and society so that our beloved Sendai becomes a better city.
Participation in local festivals
We actively participate in Sendai's festival, such as the first sale of Sendai, the Aoba Festival, and the Ichibancho Sansha Festival, and contribute to the revitalization of Sendai and Miyagi.
