Our company is involved in the planning and operation of this event as part of the Okayama Mottainai Festival Executive Committee. On the day of the event, 33 companies, restaurants, and schools in Okayama Prefecture will gather to sell “items that get thrown away = products for a reason” that are generated at manufacturing and food production sites at discounted prices. We will donate 10% of sales to
organizations in need. The “Okayama Mottainai Festival” was originally planned by three companies that manufacture products in Okayama Prefecture: Dia Kogyo Co., Ltd., Okamoto Seiko Co., Ltd., and Clavis Co., Ltd. At manufacturing sites, the current situation is that during the manufacturing process, “B products” that cannot be released into the world as genuine products are discarded. We planned to create a system to give back to the local community using products that are safe to use, even though they are B products. The first event, held in February 2023, attracted approximately 840 visitors, and the second event, held in December of the same year, attracted approximately 3,200 visitors.

With the desire to expand the “Okayama Mottainai Festival” to a larger circle, the number of participating restaurants has expanded to 13 organizations. From the perspective of preventing food loss, we will prepare warm rice and drinks that are perfect for December by making use of foods that would otherwise be difficult to use but are safe to eat. We encourage visitors to bring their own chopsticks, plates, and bags (even those who don’t have their own can participate) in an effort to keep waste to a minimum. We hope that many people will be able to enjoy this festival, which is getting stronger every year. ■“Okayama Mottainai Festival” 3rd event overview Date and time: December 1, 2024 (Sunday) 10:00-16:00 Venue: Kurashiki Ivy Square Ivy Gakukan and Courtyard Square (7-2 Honmachi, Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture) What to bring: Your own chopsticks, your own plate, your own bag recommended (you can enjoy even if you don’t have your own)

This is the third time that the “Okayama Mottainai Festival” has been held. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the
approximately 3,200 people who came to the second event held last year, which far exceeded the number of visitors to the first event. We will continue to increase the number of friends who sympathize with the purpose of “Okayama Mottainai Festival” one by one, and hope that this circle will spread from Okayama to all over the country.
