Social Contribution Activities
Our tea is simply a natural blessing. We hope to give back to the nature for its blessing. One of them is mangrove planting.
We hope that all our employees will understand the company's social responsibility and grow to be persons who acknowledges the importance of social contribution.
A general term for plants which grow in the brackish-water regions of the tropical and subtropical zone where seawater and river water merge.
Mangrove planting is conducted for preserving the global environment and ecosystem.
Mangrove plays a role in global warming prevention, sea water purification and serves as a natural breakwater for tsunami disaster prevention and the importance has been focused on in recent years.
In a mangrove forest, fallen mangrove leaves become food for benthos like crab and shellfish, or sink to the sea bed and decompose to generate microbe and algae which feeds small animals living in the mangrove forest. Small animals are eaten by fish and shellfish, which are then eaten by insects, birds, reptiles and mammals. There is a sensational "food chain" drama in the mangrove forest. Therefore, it can be said that protecting mangroves indirectly contributes to the ecosystem of all living creatures.
