The Nichimo Group supports this event's mission of enabling children—the future generation—to learn about marine environmental issues and ecosystems in an enjoyable way. At the workshop, participants will experience making reusable bags using bio-based and biodegradable fishing nets that help reduce marine environmental impact. Additionally, at our exhibition booth, we will distribute 'eco-friendly fish keychains' made from recycled used fishing nets and wood fibers—materials developed to address the issue of marine plastic waste.

Going forward, the Nichimo Group will continue to uphold its purpose of 'From Shore to Table, Challenging for the Future,' striving to become a company that contributes to a sustainable society through enriching and healthy lifestyles for all.
