The service began in 1968 as a way for Japanese Americans living in the US to send fruit to their family and friends in Japan. In the days before overseas travel was widespread, it is still heard that the recipients were delighted and impressed by the deliciousness of the fresh fruit, in addition to the excitement of receiving the gift from the United States.

And now Nishimoto WORLD GIFT has developed a service that delivers value-added Japanese beef, seaweed and osechi (New Year's dishes) to American homes.

Nishimoto WORLD GIFT continues to provide the service that has delighted customers for over 50 years.

Japanese growers produce "the most delicious fruit in the world" with their skilled techniques, careful cultivation and sincerity. IKIGAI FRUITS is a business that delivers high quality, fresh fruit to people in US, along with the "IKIGAI" stories of these growers.

At IKIGAI FRUITS, we hope to bring the joy and excitement of the people in US to Japanese growers and become the hope of the next generation of agriculture facing various challenges.
