2014.02.19
In this part of the Ginza×CSR series, we asked about the social contribution activities of Mikimoto, producer and seller of jewelry. Every winter season, Mikimoto attracts attention for its huge lighted Christmas tree set up outside the Ginza main shop. The Christmas tree is founded on Mikimoto’s corporate philosophy of building a beautiful world that is at one with nature.
