UNIQLO is providing support to many different people around the world impacted by COVID-19, regardless of whether we operate stores in these locations. Having already donated over 15 million masks to medical facilities in Japan and abroad with the cooperation of our production partners, we are now working to assist communities through clothing including AIRism, HEATTECH, as well as protective clothing. We also started donating masks to organizations with which UNIQLO’s global brand ambassadors are affiliated, and then expanded the donation of masks to sports organizations and sports-related groups worldwide, including our official global partners, the Swedish Olympic and Paralympic Committee.
UNIQLO Initiatives to Help Combat COVID-19
UNIQLO extends its heartfelt sympathy to those who have lost loved ones due to COVID-19 or who have been ill with the virus.
To help safeguard the health and environments of our customers, production partners, employees, and communities, we are seeking to confront this unprecedented crisis, and to contribute to the global community through a number of initiatives.
