Agricultural Business
We import fresh fruits and vegetables from all over the world to Japan.
The Agribusiness imports fresh fruits and vegetables, frozen processed fruits and vegetables, etc. into Japan. By making full use of the global network it has developed over many years, it supports a safe and secure food infrastructure by importing and selling fresh fruits and vegetables to wholesale markets, food manufacturers, mass retailers, the restaurant industry, etc.
In particular, in the area of fresh fruit and vegetables, the company became the exclusive import agent for Sunkist Growers, America's largest agricultural production cooperative, in 1968, and boasts one of the largest shares in Japan for imported citrus fruits such as oranges and lemons.With a unique business model that involves everything from developing production areas to shipping and sales, aiming for a stable supply, the company is contributing to the development of Japan's diverse food culture.The company also operates as a food ingredient manufacturer, working with the retail and restaurant industries to develop products such as desserts.
The mission of our agricultural business is to steadily supply safe, secure and delicious food ingredients to the domestic food industry, which demands strict quality standards.
Delivering high-quality, reasonably priced Japanese fruits and vegetables overseas.
As a new initiative, we have started a business of exporting fruits and vegetables overseas. We sell high-quality, reasonably priced fruits and vegetables produced in Japan to Asian countries, including China, Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia. As a specific example, small apples from Aomori Prefecture, which were previously consumed in Japan for processed products, were branded as "SUGOI Apple". This became a big hit among middle-income earners in Southeast Asia, bringing new value to small apples. The "SUGOI" series, which also brings great benefits to producers, will continue to expand its lineup. We are also working to expand our overseas sales channels, including through trilateral trade of fruits and vegetables developed overseas.
In 1968, we launched our global e-commerce business, delivering fruits and luxury foods from around the world to American expatriates and Japanese people living in the U.S. to their families and acquaintances in Japan. We launched our global e-commerce site to make this long-loved service more convenient and available in a wider range of situations. We aim to expand into new sales channels by focusing on services for general consumers as well.
