Platform for High-Quality Processing, Transport and Sales Business of Japanese Food Ingredients
“Food processing center at Osaka Kizu Wholesale Market,” a platform base for handling everything from the cooking and freezing to the exportation of food ingredients
In April 2019, we opened a food processing plant on the premises of Osaka Kizu Wholesale Market. We leverage the know-how of food processing at logistics centers and production services that the KONOIKE Group has cultivated to provide a one-stop service for multiple processing tasks (such as cutting, boiling, grilling/frying, steaming and seasoning) and advanced rapid freeze processing of Japanese food ingredients (agricultural and fishery products). Thus, we support sale to mass retailers and restaurants in Japan and furthermore, exportation.
