In these days, while demand of fishery products is increasing, their prices are escalating. Even in Japan, since the number of imported products is increasing, the market is easily influenced by these prices. Furthermore, increased costs for fishing operations because of skyrocketing crude oil prices, fishing boats’ fuel, and long-distance fishing taking place due to decreasing fish catches also have the market prices increasing dramatically. We believe that there are still chances to find unknown elements and/or hidden uses for fish. We devote every effort to find and study these possibilities and propose the latest products for your market. Our focus is to develop more value-added products to meet various kinds of needs and requests from our customers.

After removing the head and abdomen skin from a skipjack it is cut it into more than three fillets. The fillets are cut into the shape of a boat, which is called “Fushi” in Japanese. “Fushi” is processed into “Katsuo-fushi or Katsuo-bushi” (dried smoked skipjack in Japanese).
Depending on the differences of processing, there are “Ara-bushi”, “Hon-bushi”, “Kare-bushi”, “Honkare-bushi”, and “Shiage-bushi”. “Hon-bushi”, “Kare-bushi”, “Honkare-bushi”, and “Shiage-bushi” are processed by spraying edible mold on Ara-bushi” repeatedly for the purpose of moisture extraction and maturing.
Molded “Kare-bushi” is treated as a high-grade product because it includes more “umami (the fifth taste sensation discovered by Japanese)” and more vitamins than any other “Katsuo-bushi”.
We widely handle “Katsuo-bushi” from famous production areas from around Japan. Mainly Yaizu in Shizuoka, Yamakawa and Makurazaki in Kagoshima.
Meanwhile, our imported “Katusuo-bushi” mainly comes from the Philippines. We take pride that our total imported amount is one of the highest share numbers in Japan.
Manufacturing contracts for spraying mold in our subcontracted factories can be arranged by request.

Because freshness of fishery products declines more easily comparing to other food products, how quickly the products can be sent to consumers while withholding their freshness is the most important thing for being superior or inferior to another product. In accordance with our thoughts about great quality and by using our wide experience and business networks, only good frozen skipjack, tuna, and other fish are sold and purchased from our local area, Yaizu, from other areas in Japan, and overseas (like the Philippines, Indonesia, Viet Nam, and China). We are in a position to introduce our products to meet your diversifying needs and requests, like bluefin tuna, bigeye tuna, yellowfin tuna, fresh tuna, products related with skipjack, processed loin products, etc. We are also conscious of the importance of health and safety, high freshness, trends towards organic products, etc..

We handle livestock food by making use of by-products like corns and coats discharged from pineapple canneries. Since pineapple has a high level of carbohydrates because of its large amount of enzymes and also has appropriate amount of organic acids, it can supply high-calorie food for livestock and an increase in quality of meat can be made as a result.
Our research and development of new eco products by using by-products other than pineapple is getting started.
