Ryohin Keikaku develops and sells MUJI clothing, food and household goods, including storage products, furniture, stationery and packaged curry. Some store activities also give local vendors a place to sell their own food and crafts.
Local vendors sell food and crafts inside the store
MUJI’s community markets are occasional events planned and run with local people. Local vendors bring food, regional specialties and crafts to sell at the store. In workshops, local individuals and organizations teach cooking or making things. The premises provide a place for those people to sell and teach, alongside MUJI’s own retail activity (Activities at Stores).
A place for local goods, and a collection point for used clothing

The store-activities page describes collection of selected eligible products and sales of reused or upcycled items as ReMUJI. At some stores, bargain markets also offer used or unused furniture and goods affected by damage, marks or returns after opening. Collection and resale arrangements vary by product and store (Activities at Stores).
Operating a place to stay differs from renovating one
Creating spaces where people use furniture and daily necessities connects accommodation with MUJI products. These sources do not, however, quantify the additional revenue generated by community activities, collection or accommodation.

The plan table starts from 1,412 stores, a different displayed scope from the all-format total of 1,474 above. Adding the planned net openings to 1,474 would not produce a future total with a consistent scope. Community activities, collection and accommodation roles also vary by location.
THE VIEW AFTER THE NUMBERS
What the numbers suggest
MUJI stores can provide a place for local people to sell, and a point for customers to return used goods, alongside selling the company’s own products. Local vendors sell at community markets; returned clothing is separated into reuse or upcycling for resale and recycling into raw materials.
Ryohin Keikaku adds these roles to its everyday-products retail business, and also positions stores as local hubs for accommodation. Store counts, activity-days, collection cases and garments sold each measure something different. Keeping those measures distinct makes it easier to see who does what, without turning them into an unsupported claim about extra revenue.
Nishimatsuya reshapes its network through openings, closures and replacements, supplying private-label clothing and childcare goods. In the year ended February 2026, it also added online visibility of physical-store stock. Standalone sales increased while operating profit declined. Beyond adding selling space, the economics depend on selling goods at their original prices and organizing work in stores and logistics.
