We will contribute to the happiness and prosperity of those involved in the food industry by providing transformative solutions and spreading Asian food and Japanese agricultural products worldwide.

 

 

We, Wismettac group was established in 1912 as a trading company in Kobe, have continued to provide the wealth and joy of eating to people all over the world, focusing on Asian food including Japanese food and agricultural products.

 

Asian food global business, which began in the 1910s with a hope to deliver the taste of their hometown to Japanese immigrants overseas, has grown over more than a century. Our private brand for overseas markets “Shirakiku®” was registered as a trademark in 1921, and it is popular in North America and other parts of the world, contributing to the spread of Japanese and Asian food.

 

In Agricultural products trading business, we became the general import agent in Japan for Sunkist Growers in 1968, and now procure a wide range of fresh fruits and vegetables, frozen processed products from around the world and sell them to wholesale markets, bulk-sale stores, and foodservice and precooked take-home food businesses and food manufacturers, both in Japan and overseas. In recent years, Japanese highquality fruits and vegetables have been highly praised overseas, and our company's medium to long-term business strategy of global production and sales of Japanese varieties is expected to create new growth opportunities in overseas markets.

 

We have been expanding the scale in those business segments steadily and have been a prominent global company both in Japan and throughout the world. Now, we have been developing new businesses with the aim of improving the food experience for consumers and enrich the lives of those involved in the food industry in addition to existing businesses.

 

As Japanese and other Asian foods become more prevalent as daily foods throughout the world while the forms of food offerings diversify, and as the reputation of Japanese fruit and vegetables rises year after year, the role that we can play and the potential of our global business also grow by the year.

 

We will provide people around the world with fresh experiences in eating and enjoyable daily lives by promoting Asian food as well as Japanese fruits and vegetables, and we will contribute to the happiness and prosperity of those involved in the food industry by providing transformative solutions to various issues and needs in the industry by leveraging the network we have established thus far. Keeping in mind these corporate philosophies and the social responsibilities that we should fulfill, we will strive to further evolve as a company in the food industry.
