shoichi Co., Ltd. Donates Approximately 4,500 Items of Clothing Provided by DHC to Ukraine and Cambodia: Promoting Both Humanitarian Aid and Environmental Impact Reduction Through the Effective Use of Unused Clothing

shoichi Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Osaka; President: Shoichi Yamamoto; hereinafter "shoichi") has donated approximately 4,500 items of unused clothing provided by DHC Corporation (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President: Midori Miyazaki; hereinafter "DHC") to people facing hardship in Ukraine and Cambodia through the non-profit organization "tasukeai haiki 0," which is operated by shoichi.

shoichi is committed to creating new value and distribution channels for usable products through its corporate inventory disposal business and the effective utilization of surplus stock.

This support was made possible by DHC providing unused clothing that had reached the end of its sales opportunity as of December 2025.

The donated clothing was selected based on local conditions and needs, focusing primarily on items such as warm clothing and innerwear that are practical for daily life. These supplies will be used to support the daily lives of people living in harsh environments.

Under the philosophy of "Creating new overseas sales channels and a future for waste inventory through a circle of mutual aid," shoichi views surplus stock and unused items not as waste, but as social resources that can be connected to places where they are needed, promoting support activities both domestically and internationally. For this initiative, members of "tasukeai haiki 0" carefully sorted, inspected, and packed each item of DHC's unused clothing to ensure they reach those in need.

shoichi will continue to contribute to the realization of a sustainable society by aiming to balance humanitarian aid and environmental impact reduction through the effective use of surplus stock and unused items held by companies.

Comment from Shoichi Yamamoto, President of shoichi Co., Ltd.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to DHC for their support and cooperation in enabling us to deliver approximately 4,500 items of unused clothing to those in need in Ukraine and Cambodia.

Through this initiative, I was reminded once again that unused items and surplus stock held by companies still possess significant social value. By appropriately connecting these items to regions and people in need, we can not only reduce waste but also provide essential support for daily life.

We will continue to collaborate with companies like DHC on initiatives with social significance...
