Export system and facility development.

We cooperate with many young producers in growing regions within the prefecture, centered on a group of producers with direct connections to our company, and JGAP-certified producers of the Soju Supporters Club, allowing us to meet the quality and quantity requirements of importers. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, we also visited countries targeted for exports and carried out on-site surveys.

PR activities overseas

We have displayed our products at numerous business meetings and exhibitions throughout Asia and the EU. We have experience in PR activities through, e.g., social media, in collaboration with local companies, as well as more than 10 years' experience in exporting products.

Characteristics and strengths of businesses (producers)

Our orchards are blessed with clear blue skies and the Echigo Plain stretching out for as far as the eye can see, as well as the fertile soil on the banks of Shinano River, the longest river in Japan, making it the ideal location for cultivating fruits. We were the first in Niigata Prefecture to acquire JGAP certification. Our nashi pears are fully ripened on the tree, while our European Le Lectier pears undergo natural after- ripening for a delicious taste.
