It's the season when the cherry blossom front makes its vibrant journey across Japan. The cold has eased, and our spirits are lifting, making us feel bright and cheerful 🌸 We hope you'll take a look at this month's activity report.

  

01About the Recycling Business

Our Ghana office has started developing various furniture using Marble. The tiles themselves are also being developed in Ghana under the name "Magomarble."

    

Currently, we are repeatedly prototyping, primarily focusing on living room tables for home use and school desks for schools. We are very much looking forward to the day when these products are commercialized and used by many people!

Our staff are also enjoying the development process through various trials and errors.

 

This month, we have more wonderful news to share! "MAGO BLOCK" has won the "Social Products Award" in the Free Theme category of the Social Product Award 2025!!

   

＜We also received encouraging comments from the judges.＞
 
'This business model, which focuses on Ghana's electronic waste and poverty issues, and achieves both reduction of environmental impact and job creation, is highly commendable. It effectively utilizes the unique technology of developing building materials from discarded plastics, and through collaboration between Ghana and Japan, it is characterized by its global expansion of environmental issues and economic activities.
 
The efforts to improve the current situation where electronic waste from developed countries becomes garbage mountains and to provide safe employment to people from slum areas, thereby supporting local environmental improvement and economic independence, are particularly significant. Furthermore, the system of providing real-time updates on project progress through a blog, allowing many consumers to learn about the current situation and easily empathize, is also excellent.
      
The clear achievements in CO2 reduction and job creation through waste recycling make this an outstanding product that contributes to a sustainable society.'

 

What is the Social Products Award? The Social Products Award (SPA) is the first award system in Japan to highlight excellent "social products" that contribute to the realization of a sustainable society and evaluate both their social and commercial aspects. It began in 2012 and SPA2025 marks its 12th year.

02About the Agriculture Business

We have also started developing moringa tea products in Ghana. We're curious about the tea-drinking habits of people in Ghana.

 

It's really fun to research things like that!

 

    

"Strawberry Morin Tea" will be released in April! Following Yuzu Morin Tea, a new flavor is being added. We used freeze-dried Amaou strawberries, prioritizing authenticity over artificial flavors! Please enjoy the gentle aroma and sweetness of strawberry.

 

It will be pre-released at the solo exhibition venue in Hankyu Umeda. It will also be gradually rolled out online.

       

Moringa tea is still available online 🫖 Please give it a try.

03About the Poultry Farming Business

It has been about a month since the training for this new project, which started last month, began. The four members transferred from Agbogbloshie are working hard every day, learning from Mr. Felix.

    

And, with the poultry farm now ready, approximately 1,000 chicks have finally arrived at our farm. We will continue to work tirelessly with our local staff to ensure the steady growth of this business!

  

  

04Soccer Business

The final selection for professional league registration took place this month, and 27 players were chosen from 37. March was also the month of Ramadan, during which eating and drinking are prohibited during daylight hours. Despite this, the players expressed a desire to play a match simulating next year's league games, and so a practice match was held.

 

We played a practice match against a team with former Ghana national team players and players who have played in Europe, and although we unfortunately lost 1-2, it was a good experience during Ramadan in preparation for next year.

  

     

Updates on future matches and activities are available on our social media!
