Supporting and Participating in the World Food Programme’s “End Hunger: Walk the World” Initiative

Nissui has supported “WFP Walk the World,” a charity walk event sponsored by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), an accredited NPO, since 2017. A portion of the participation fees for the charity walk is allocated to support the United Nations World Food Programme in providing school meals to children worldwide. In FY2025, the event was held at three main locations (Yokohama, Osaka, and Nagoya) and five additional self-organized locations (Tsukuba, Himeji, Kashima, Oita and Hiroshima), with a total of 227 participants, including employees’ families.

Activities with “TABLE FOR TWO”

Activities at Hachioji General Plant

Since March 2018, Hachioji General Plant has been running its TABLE FOR TWO (TFT) campaign. In the campaign, when employees purchase certain set meals or foods, a 20 yen donation is made, which, through an NPO organization, is then used to provide school meals to children in developing countries. At the Hachioji General Plant, we offer a TFT menu once a week, designating a fish dish rich in healthy EPA and DHA.
In addition, a vending machine that supports TFT has also been installed which allows the user to make a donation with every purchase of a beverage, providing plant employees with the opportunity to easily make social contributions. In FY2025, a total of 108,200 yen was given as donations.

"Onigiri Action 2025" Campaign

Nissui endorsed and supported the "Onigiri Action 2025" campaign, continuing its involvement from the previous year. "Onigiri Action" is an initiative where people post photos of onigiri (rice balls) on social media or the campaign's special website with the hashtag #OnigiriAction. For every photo posted, sponsoring companies donate the equivalent of five school lunches to children in Africa and Asia through TFT. This campaign, which began in 2015 to commemorate World Food Day (October 16), a day designated by the United Nations to encourage people worldwide to think about food and food-related challenges, saw remarkable success in 2025. A total of 233,321 photos were collected, resulting in 1,166,605 school lunches being delivered to children in Africa and Asia.
From October 7, 2025, to November 15, 2025, Nissui conducted the "Learn More, Deliver more Challenge!" campaign, featuring the mascot character "Yaki Onio," the main character of its "Big Grilled Onigiri" product. A special website was created to share information about "Onigiri Action 2025." In addition, the Nissui Group organized events involving its employees and shared these activities on its official SNS accounts to promote Onigiri Action both internally and externally. Through the Present Campaign and Group-wide initiatives, a total of 19,442 photos were collected.
