Sustainable Shopping Initiatives

In a significant move towards fostering a more sustainable fashion ecosystem, the ‘MARUNOUCHI SPRING COLLECTION 2026’ integrates two impactful trade-in campaigns. These initiatives offer shoppers a unique opportunity to refresh their wardrobes and beauty routines while contributing to environmental conservation.

Clothing Trade-in Campaign

From March 13th to 14th, unwanted clothing can be brought to the Shin-Marunouchi Building 3F Atrium. Participants will receive a 1,000 yen app coupon, valid for purchases of 5,000 yen (tax included) or more at all eligible Marunouchi Point App stores. The collected garments will be processed through the ‘BRING’ supply chain, an initiative that partners with consumers, businesses, and local governments to recycle and reuse unwanted products. Items in good condition will be reused, while others will be recycled into new resources. This campaign aims to reduce waste and promote a circular economy in fashion.

BRING is a company dedicated to transforming discarded clothes into resources. They collect used clothing, re-sell reusable items, and recycle unwearable ones into raw materials for new garments, aiming to reduce waste and reliance on petroleum resources.

This campaign is limited to the first 600 participants over two days, with a maximum of three items per person, and one coupon per person regardless of the number of items. The coupon is valid until March 25th, 2026.

Cosmetics Trade-in Campaign

Following its success in autumn 2025, the ‘Cosmetics Trade-in Campaign’ returns this spring on March 6th and 7th. The first 500 participants each day who bring their unwanted cosmetics to the Shin-Marunouchi Building 3F Atrium will receive a 500 yen coupon, usable for purchases of 1,500 yen (tax included) or more at eligible Marunouchi Point App stores in Marunouchi Building and Shin-Marunouchi Building. These collected cosmetics are then transformed into art supplies like crayons and acrylic paints through the ‘Plus Cosme Project,’ which are then provided to welfare facilities, SDGs event organizers, and young artists. This initiative aligns with SDG 12, promoting responsible consumption and production.
