8th Chuogumi Thanksgiving Festival to be Held

Chuogumi Co., Ltd. (Nakamura Ward, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture) will hold its 8th Chuogumi Thanksgiving Festival in front of its head office from 12:00 to 17:30 on Saturday, May 16, 2026. This event is an annual tradition, held each year to express gratitude to the local community, and this marks its 8th iteration.

In recent years, as the unity of local communities has become increasingly important, interest in building relationships between companies and local residents has grown.

At this year's festival, Nepalese employees actively working at the company will take the lead in serving authentic Nepalese curry and special lassi. In today's workplaces, where employees from diverse cultural backgrounds thrive, building bonds with the community through cross-cultural exchange is attracting attention as a new form of community development. A fun game corner, including a candy grab, will be set up for children, ensuring that families can participate with peace of mind.

Particularly noteworthy is the first-time hosting of the "See, Buy, and Support! Connected Marche," organized in collaboration with "Well Job Nagoya" (Nagoya City Employment Support Window for People with Disabilities). The company supports local employment support facilities, aiming to promote employment and improve wages for people with disabilities. This initiative is expected to achieve comprehensive community support through cooperation with welfare facilities. The marche will feature a variety of products, including puddings, breads, baked goods, and donuts.

Furthermore, the company, which also functions as a disaster prevention base during emergencies, will offer "disaster preparedness bread" with a 5-year shelf life free of charge to the first 50 attendees (scheduled). As the company approaches its 60th anniversary next year, it will continue to fulfill its responsibilities and mission as a community-based enterprise, contributing even further to the sustainable development of the local community.
