Under these circumstances, returnable bottles that can be used repeatedly are attracting attention as they lead to reducing the amount of plastic used and making effective use of resources. We believe that by utilizing our 2-way service of delivery and
collection, which is possible only because we have our own delivery network, which is a feature of our company, we can contribute to the promotion of reuse activities for returnable bottles. We decided to sell bottled mineral water. Additionally, according to the Japan Tourism Agency’s “Survey on creating an environment for foreign tourists visiting Japan,” about 70% of all respondents chose Japan as a travel destination with emphasis on being able to practice sustainable tourism. *, it is expected that accommodation facilities, restaurants, etc. will be required to be more environmentally friendly. The start of sales of returnable bottled mineral water will help meet the needs of accommodation facilities, restaurants, etc., and we will continue to contribute to the SDGs together with restaurants, which our company is implementing. We will continue to promote the spread of returnable bottles as part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). *From the results of the Japan Tourism Agency’s FY2020 “Questionnaire on improving the environment for receiving foreign tourists visiting Japan”
