Grameen UNIQLO T-Shirts and Tote Bags to Hit Stores Oct. 14 Sales of clothing from social business to mark opening of UNIQLO's New York Fifth Avenue Store
In 2010, UNIQLO started a social business* in Bangladesh with Grameen Healthcare Trust.
The social business will produce truly great clothing in Bangladesh and sell it at affordable prices for the poor. All sales proceeds are reinvested in the social business. Local residents are able to improve the quality of their lives and achieve financial independence by operating their own businesses under this system, which is intended to address social challenges through the production and sales of clothing in Bangladesh.
UNIQLO Grameen T-shirts and tote bags will be released at all UNIQLO stores and online stores on Friday, October 14 to commemorate the opening of the largest global flagship, the UNIQLO New York Fifth Avenue Store.
Three T-shirts designs will be available in unisex sizes S to XL for 1,500 yen each. The tote bags will also be available in three different styles for 990 yen.
