Gooday Donates 1.6 Million Yen Worth of Flower Seedlings to Public Facilities in Fukuoka City

Gooday Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City; President: Takashi Yanase), which operates 67 "Gooday" home centers in Northern Kyushu and Yamaguchi, will donate flower seedlings and shrubs worth 1.6 million yen to Fukuoka City. This comes as part of its "Aim for 1.6 Million Plants! One Flower Per Person Campaign," which was launched in November 2025 to support the city's "One Flower Per Person" movement and reached its target sales goal (1.6 million plants) in February 2026.

This donation is being made in connection with Fukuoka City's population of approximately 1.6 million people. Through the provision of flower seedlings, the company will contribute to the promotion of the "One Flower Per Person" movement, which aims to create a city full of flowers and greenery through collaboration among citizens, businesses, and the government.

The donation is planned for public facilities within Fukuoka City (such as ward offices), and the specific locations will be determined in consultation with Fukuoka City.

Planting is scheduled to begin sequentially from fiscal year 2026 (after Golden Week).

In addition to providing the flower seedlings, Gooday also plans to offer advice on planting. Maintenance will be carried out by the managers of each facility.

The flow of people created by flowers and the gentle coloring of public spaces also contribute to enhancing the city's appeal.

As a company rooted in the community, we will continue to collaborate with Fukuoka City to promote the "One Flower Per Person" movement.

Donation Overview

・ Donation Content: Flower seedlings and shrubs (to be determined based on season and location)

・ Total Donation Value: Up to 1.6 million yen

・ Donation Locations: Public facilities in Fukuoka City (such as ward offices)

・ Planting Period: Fiscal year 2026 (from Golden Week onward)
