Isetan Mitsukoshi Hometown Tax Donation launched on October 29th of last year, leveraging the Isetan Mitsukoshi Group's nationwide network to provide more people across the country with opportunities to learn about the charms of each region through the introduction of local information and specialty products. The number of participating municipalities has expanded from 13 to 20 (one prefecture and nine prefectures), and the number of special gifts selected by department store buyers for each region has doubled to approximately 800, continuing the expansion of the business. As a new initiative, to support businesses struggling with sales channels due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the "Business Support Project Special Gifts" project, launched on May 21st, offers gifts to support businesses struggling with excess inventory. The "Business Support Project SNS Gift Campaign," which introduces businesses and gives away gifts on official Twitter and Facebook accounts, began on May 13th. :
Starting May 30th, we plan to launch a new "Disaster Relief Donations: COVID-19 Countermeasures Support" initiative, which will allow donations to be made to certain local governments in support of COVID-19 countermeasures.

【Concept】
At the Isetan Mitsukoshi Group, we operate department stores that are rooted in each region, from Hokkaido in the north to Kyushu in the south, and have aimed to continue to add color to the lives of our customers. We believe that communicating the wonders of each region, such as the climate, culture, and local specialties that only we know, to the rest of Japan is a way for us to revitalize the local areas, a contribution we can make, thanks to the support we have received from our local customers.
【Features of Isetan Mitsukoshi Hometown Tax Donation】
● Aiming to provide the peace of mind and trust that only a department store can offer
● Carefully selected "return gifts" chosen by department store buyers
● Expanding connections with the local community through in-store information at department stores
【Special Return Gifts for the Business Support Project: Period: Thursday, May 21st - Friday, July 31st】
We have launched a limited-time project to support businesses that have been hit hard by the effects of the new coronavirus. With retail distribution in cities coming to a halt, there is nowhere for locally produced and processed food to go. In the hopes of being of some help, we are working with local businesses to introduce limited-time special return gifts.
