Saotome Sogo Product Co., Ltd. is introducing the social contribution project 'Shokurin Pachinko' (Reforestation Pachinko) at the Live Garden Tochigi Main Store, starting May 21, 2026. This initiative supports forestation activities through the gameplay of Pachinko and slots. As an amusement company rooted in the local community, we aim to support the creation of a future that is friendly to the global environment together with our customers.
Background of the Introduction
In recent years, interest in environmental issues such as global warming and deforestation has been increasing. Companies are increasingly being asked how they can contribute to society and the environment through their business activities.
Saotome Sogo Product has consistently engaged in various CSR activities, such as local community cleanup activities, disaster prevention support, and cooperation with local events, as a company walking alongside the local society.
The 'Shokurin Pachinko' being introduced this time is a new attempt to connect the time spent enjoying Pachinko and slots to the support for future forest creation. We aim to contribute to the creation of a sustainable society by spreading awareness of environmental contribution through familiar gaming experiences for our customers.
What is 'Shokurin Pachinko'?
It is a social contribution project at Live Garden Tochigi Main Store that supports forestation activities through Pachinko and slot play. We provide an opportunity for customers to participate in environmental contribution while having fun by clearly displaying target models and activity details in the store, with a system where gameplay directly supports forestation activities.
Through this effort, we aim to grow values that are friendly to the local community and the global environment together with our customers, alongside the fun of gaming.

Supporting the creation of future forests through gaming. At Live Garden Tochigi Main Store, under the slogan 'Your play connects to the green of the future,' we are communicating the 'Shokurin Pachinko' initiative to customers through posters and other information in the store.
With this project, we aim for the following environmental contributions:
- Support for creating lush forests through forestation activities
- Contribution to the global environment through forest conservation
- Raising awareness for building a sustainable future
The time spent enjoying Pachinko and slots becomes a step towards supporting future forest creation. We will spread such new value together with our customers. Inside the store, we have placed ornamental plants, welcoming customers into a green-filled space.
In-store Notification
Along with the introduction of 'Shokurin Pachinko,' we are installing posters and notices at the Live Garden Tochigi Main Store to explain the initiative clearly. The posters feature designs inspired by forests and greenery to express contributions to forestation and the global environment in a friendly manner. We are also utilizing our company characters so that customers can feel the initiative is close to them.
In the future, in addition to in-store notifications, we plan to communicate activity content and support results as needed.
