Hello everyone, this is Keko from the online team 😊
At Nakamura Tokichi Honten, we cherish not only the quality of the tea we deliver,
but also how we deliver it to you.
From the moment your order is placed, we begin preparing not only your package—but the path it takes to reach you.
✈️ Reducing Our Carbon Footprint, One Shipment at a Time
We’re happy to share that in 2024, we joined DHL’s GoGreen Plus program.
This initiative uses Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) instead of conventional jet fuel—
helping to reduce CO₂ emissions in international air transport.
📉 What does this mean?
99,284.82 ton-kilometers of shipments in 2024
11.64 tons of CO₂e emissions avoided
A 19.81% reduction compared to traditional methods
Certified SAF by ISCC Plus, supplied by AirBP
This is part of our continued effort to choose responsible logistics,
while still ensuring your favorite tea arrives fresh and on time.
🌍 Why it matters
For us, sustainability is not just a label.
It’s a series of small, conscious decisions—from how we grow, to how we package, and how we ship.
By choosing DHL’s low-emission air transport,
we're joining a global movement toward greener eCommerce—
and so are you.
🍵 A shared journey
Every time you enjoy a cup of our tea,
you’re also part of a broader journey toward balance—
between tradition and innovation, between people and planet.
We thank you for being part of this path with us.
