Our Basic Principle

FAST RETAILING complies with environmental laws and keeps abreast of issues facing the international community and the global environment. We believe the first thing FAST RETAILING can do to minimize its environmental impact is to improve management efficiency. We will be ever-vigilant in identifying wasteful operations and look for ways to provide maximum added value with minimum resources.

FAST RETAILING’s focus on the environment

Based on our environmental policies established in 2007, FAST RETAILING strives to reduce impact on the environment in every stage of SPA, from planning, production, logistics and sales to disposal. We continue to work together with customers on environmental issues through our business activities. One example of this is in the promotion of UNIQLO’s All-Product Recycling Initiative since 2006.

Environmental Policy

In order to fulfill our promise to make good casual clothing that anyone can wear, UNIQLO coordinates and maintains control over the entire product process from manufacture through sale, that is to say the planning, development, procurement of materials, manufacture, distribution, inventory management and retail of our products.
We take very seriously any burden that our global operations may exert on the environment, and we aim to be socially responsible by working to conserve the environment and continually reduce any such burden that we may generate.

1.  We respect and uphold all laws and regulations related to the environment with respect to UNIQLO operations, and we conduct our business in line with social rules and common sense.
2.  We strive to increase our level of customer satisfaction by offering products and services that are safe, reassuring and environmentally friendly.
3.  We are acutely aware of any potential burden that UNIQLO operations may have on the environment, and we strive to prevent environmental pollution through energy and resource conservation, and reduction of waste materials and CO2 emissions.
4.  We carry out regular environmental education and educational activities in order to increase awareness among the people who work at UNIQLO of the need to protect the environment.
5.  We aim to create a community-based store network, and, in so doing, cooperate with the local community on environmental conservation activities.
6.  We are aware of the importance of good communication with all those who have a stake in UNIQLO operations, and, with that in mind, we ensure timely and appropriate disclosure of information regarding UNIQLO’s environmental conservation activities.
7.  We are always seeking ways to ensure continuous improvements and better our activities by regularly reviewing the structure and actual nature of our environmental conservation activities.
