Social contribution activities
Disaster recovery
When disasters strike, we provide donations, to help people in the affected areas. The roof of the Nissan Shatai head office building, which is in the Hiratsuka City, is designated a tsunami evacuation site, and when the Major Tsunami Warning is issued, it will be used as an emergency temporary evacuation site for everyone in the neighboring area.

Plant Tours for Elementary School Students
Nissan Shatai considers conducting plant tours as a part of our social responsibility in our position as an automotive manufacturer. Plant tours are held throughout the year, under the topic of "Japanese Industries" that Grade 5 elementary school students study in their Social Studies courses. In this topic, the automotive industry is raised as a representative example of Japanese industries. In addition to what they learn in the classroom, the plant tours provide students with the opportunity to observe real automobile production lines up close, and to gain in-depth knowledge about vehicle manufacturing by actually experiencing the process.
On weekdays, we often welcome elementary school social studies classes. On holidays and during summer vacation, we conduct a learning program for parents and their children. In addition to local elementary schools in Hiratsuka City, we also provide on-site tours mainly in the Tokyo Metropolitan Area and online tours on “car-making” for elementary schools across the country.

Open Day
In line with our aim of being an open company, Nissan Shatai organizes Open Days for the general public. At the Shonan Plant, employees take on the role of hosts, and set up many stalls for the event. The "Yu-topia" festival is held every year in the fall, when visitors enjoy a wide variety of events ranging from a charity bazaar, to mini-concerts by idol groups and singers.
Throughout the year, we also hold "Nissan Vehicle Fairs," which brings together the latest Nissan vehicle models under one roof. Special business meetings that offer vehicle sales at preferential rates are also held during these fairs.
