Overseas initiatives to reduce the environmental impact
The PPIH Group is expanding its overseas operations, having opened 45 stores in Asia (excluding Japan) and 65 stores in North America as of June 30, 2024.
To accelerate Group-wide efforts to reduce the environmental impact of our business activities, stores in each country and region are promoting a variety of initiatives.
-Store concept logo for overseas business

The store concept for our entire overseas business is "Taste, Health and Environment." This logo mark represents the cycle of "production - distribution - consumer" and "origami," which means "value can be guaranteed."
Reduce CO₂ Emissions
Introduction of Renewable Energy
We are striving to reduce CO₂ emissions by introducing solar power generation facilities at a total of 12 stores in Hawaii and Thailand (as of June 2024).

Reduce Plastic Usage
End to the Provision of Plastic Bags at Checkouts
Stores located in North America, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, and Malaysia have stopped providing and selling disposable plastic bags to protect the environment and encourage customers to change their behavior.
For customers who want a bag to carry their purchases in are provided with reusable non-woven eco-bags or paper bags made from SFI-certified materials.

Sustainable Procurement
Introduction of uniforms made of pure cotton
Some DON DON DONKI stores in Taiwan use highly biodegradable natural cotton fiber for store uniforms. Natural cotton fiber is more environmentally friendly than chemical fiber fabrics, contributing to the reduction of environmental impact.
