GooDay Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City; CEO: Takashi Yanase), which operates 67 "GooDay" home improvement stores across Northern Kyushu and Yamaguchi, launched the "Aim for 1.6 Million Plants! One Person One Flower Campaign" in November 2025 to support Fukuoka City's "One Person One Flower Movement." Having reached the target sales volume of 1.6 million plants in February 2026, the company will donate 1.6 million yen worth of flower seedlings and shrubs to Fukuoka City.
This donation is made in reference to Fukuoka City's population of approximately 1.6 million people. By providing flower seedlings, the company contributes to the "One Person One Flower Movement," where citizens, businesses, and the government collaborate to create a city filled with flowers and greenery. The donation recipients are expected to be public facilities within Fukuoka City (such as ward offices), to be determined in consultation with the city. Planting is scheduled to begin sequentially starting in fiscal year 2026 (after the Golden Week holidays).
In addition to providing the seedlings, GooDay plans to offer advice regarding planting. Maintenance and management will be handled by the respective facility administrators. The creation of pedestrian flow through flowers and the gentle coloring of public spaces will enhance the city's appeal. As a community-rooted company, GooDay will continue to collaborate with Fukuoka City to promote the "One Person One Flower Movement."
**Donation Overview:** - **Contents:** Flower seedlings, shrubs, etc. (to be discussed based on timing and location) - **Total Amount:** Up to 1.6 million yen equivalent - **Locations:** Public facilities in Fukuoka City (ward offices, etc.) - **Planting Period:** FY2026 (starting after Golden Week)
Public spaces used by many citizens, such as ward offices, are candidates for the donation sites, and details will be announced as they are finalized. This initiative aims not only for a one-time donation but also to develop continuous flowerbed management and community activities in cooperation with facility managers and volunteer groups.
