◆ Thoughts behind the renewal

Kanako Kawaguchi | Representative of GOOD FOR LIFE

Arigato Balls are a snack that is the origin of "GOOD FOR LIFE."

With this renewal, we hope to provide a welcoming atmosphere for both those who have been familiar with us up until now and those who are meeting us for the first time.

We proceeded with the project hoping that the feeling of "thank you" would reach many people.

I would be delighted if these creatures, clothed in colorful scenery, could become a part of someone's everyday life.



Tsutomu Yoshizaki | GOOD FOR LIFE Art Director

We wanted to express the indescribable charm of the energy and cheerfulness that we sense from Kawaguchi-san, the representative of "GOOD FOR LIFE," by entrusting it to the scenery of Kanazawa, along with our standard product, the "Thank You Ball." This attempt was also a way to give form to our respect for the local area where we live. By searching anew for scenery that we might miss even if we live in Kanazawa, this project helped us to clarify the contours of our respect. We would be very happy if the feeling of "thank you" and "the rich daily life of Kanazawa," along with this scene that we happened to capture, can be connected to the future.

Kanako Kawaguchi (OneLoveCompany, Inc.)

It all started with six muffins. Making sweets began with a comment from her husband, who runs a coffee stand in Kanazawa. In 2017, she was working as an aromatherapist at the time, but in 2022 she opened GOOD FOR LIFE to focus on making sweets. With the lack of plant-based and vegan-friendly sweets available, she created her own sweets through repeated experimentation and trial and error, filled with love and care so that everyone could enjoy them with peace of mind. She delivers sweets from Kanazawa, a castle town filled with calm, comfort, and vitality, where everyday life is thriving.
