In February 2026, PalSystem Cooperative Union will kick off their special campaign, '
Maximum! Special Discount', celebrating the 20th anniversary of their name change from the former 'Seikatsu Club' to 'PalSystem'. This program is designed to express gratitude to their customers for their continued loyalty amidst ongoing inflation challenges. During the campaign period from February 2nd to March 27th, 2026, consumers can look forward to discounts ranging from 10% to 20% on over 100 carefully selected products each week, featuring primarily food and household items, with alcohol items also discounted by at least 5%.
The focus will be on popular and original products that have been beloved by PalSystem members for years. Examples include 'Roast Ham Slices' made from locally sourced pork that showcases the meat's true flavor and texture, and the 'Large Shumai', a substantial dumpling that boasts generous portions of direct-sourced pork. These items reflect PalSystem's commitment to high-quality, trustworthy products and are crafted based on their 'Seven Promises' and 'Six Aspirations.' By promoting these items, PalSystem is not only supporting consumer needs but also fostering sustainable production practices among farmers and producers.
PalSystem has seen remarkable growth since it changed its name to 'PalSystem Cooperative Union' in 2005, with membership reaching 1.76 million by March 2025. This significant milestone is a testament to their continued efforts to address user needs and wishes while collaborating closely with producers. Amidst ongoing challenges such as prolonged yen depreciation, rising raw material costs, and climate-induced crop failures, PalSystem embodies a robust ecosystem where consumers and producers support one another through direct sourcing.
The '
Maximum! Special Discount' program reiterates PalSystem's dedication to enhancing everyday life for its members. Craftsmen, farmers, and consumers are interconnected in this initiative, which emphasizes mutual support. The initiative will not only provide financial relief to consumers but also advocate for sustainable living practices among its members.
