Founded in 1980, Muji is a global Japanese retail company selling a wide variety of household consumer items, furniture, clothing, and food products. It has branched itself outside of Japan, and now has a foothold in the Philippines, with a loyal following among Filipino consumers due to what is generally perceived as quality products being sold by the brand.
Now, the Japanese retail company is moving to push Eco-consciousness to its consumers by rolling out a BYOB (Bring Your Own Bags) policy, effective November 7, 2024.
On their official Facebook page, MUJI Philippines posted:
Bring your own reusable bag and help save the earth
To encourage sustainability, we’ll soon be charging P2 for each MUJI shopping bag. Let’s make a difference together—one bag at a time.
On their official website, the company further explains the details behind this policy, including which bags are free for what purchases, and which ones will come with a Php2.00 price tag.
MUJI Philippines also reiterates on their website that they are doing this in order to reduce waste, thereby protecting the environment.
