Celebrate International Coffee Day

As October 1 approaches, the world gears up to celebrate International Coffee Day. This year, Citadines, a hospitality brand under The Ascott Limited, and UNI COFFEE ROASTERY, a cafe business based in Yokohama, are joining forces to create a series of engaging events and campaigns that will celebrate the beloved beverage. Operating over 1,000 properties across 40 countries, Citadines is committed to connecting people with the cities they inhabit, aligning perfectly with UNI COFFEE ROASTERY’s motto, "Refresh the World." Together, they plan to share unique coffee experiences that emphasize the importance of coffee in our daily lives.

Events and Campaigns

From September 22 until the end of October, this collaboration invites coffee lovers and curious individuals alike to partake in a slew of activities centered around coffee drinking and appreciation. One of the highlights is a social media campaign dubbed "#For The Love Of Coffee." Participants can share their coffee moments on social media using specific hashtags, inviting a community of coffee enthusiasts to connect digitally. As a reward, lucky participants stand a chance to win exciting prizes, including a complimentary stay at a Citadines property or exclusive UNI COFFEE ROASTERY merchandise such as coffee presses and tumblers.

Participation Guidelines

To ensure everyone has the chance to share their love for coffee, the campaign runs from September 22 to October 31, with winners announced via direct message in November. The participation steps are simple:
1. Follow @discoverasrjapan and @unicoffeeroastery on Instagram.
2. Post a photo showcasing your coffee moments, tagging it with #CitadinesLovesCoffee and #UNICOFFEEROASTERY.

This initiative not only highlights the significance of coffee but also allows participants to go on a journey of discovery about the various methods of enjoying coffee.
