Tobu Department Store Co., Ltd. has been proposing to our customers "sustainability that we can do" from March with the key message of "valuing the earth". We believe that it is a familiar eco-friendly way for customers to bring their own bags for shopping, and we carry out the "My Bag Campaign" throughout the building.
In addition, from July 1st (Wednesday), plastic shopping bags and paper handbags will be changed to environmentally friendly materials and charged, and more people than expected are using my bags. There is also a tendency to consume my bags according to their purpose and to incorporate them as fashion items. During the six months from March to August, more than 27,000 eco-bags were sold at both the Ikebukuro main store and Funabashi store.
This time, we planned a Tobu original eco bag as part of the My Bag campaign so that customers can use My Bag more enjoyably, and started selling it on September 10th (Thursday). Going forward, we will continue to encourage the use of my bags by proposing new message posters and how to use eco-bags well throughout the building, and we will work with our customers to make environmentally friendly efforts.
[ 2nd message poster ]
<What the new message poster wants to convey>
"Treasure the earth" is a message throughout the year.
There are various environmental problems such as climate variability and global warming.
Sea turtles are also affected by environmental problems due to accidental ingestion of drifting garbage.
And that is also our future.
Sea turtle parents and children tweet. "Reduce garbage.", "Have my bag."
It is a poster with the idea that consideration for the environment will continue from parents to children .
