Bookoff 36th anniversary celebrations

Overview

Japanese second-hand retailer Bookoff is celebrating its 36th anniversary through a nationwide promotional campaign. The company launched a television commercial featuring actor Kuniaki Shimizu and internet personality Ano, utilizing a quiz format to highlight generational differences in trend words.

To mark the occasion, operator Arigatou Service announced a “36th Anniversary Festival” running from August 13 to August 16. During this period, app members are eligible for a 20% discount on all used books, excluding new titles. Customers participating in buying or selling books will also receive a complimentary “Ano” bookmark.

While the promotion is being rolled out across the company’s online platform and physical stores, some regional operations have been affected by recent seismic activity. Specifically, the Kumamoto Uto and Yatsushiro stores remain closed due to the impact of recent earthquakes, though the Kumamoto Kotohira location remains operational.
