Fresh from Choshi.
True since Meiji.
President and CEO
Yasutoshi Iida
Choshi is a place blessed with a warm climate, known for its large, flavorful fruits and fresh vegetables.
It has also long been a town of fishing and soy sauce, rich in tradition and history.
In this city—where the catch has ranked No.1 in Japan for eight consecutive years—our company has continued its work since the Meiji era.
Our story began in the early Meiji period, when our founder, Goro Iida, started his business under the name “Yamago,” wishing for steady growth and lasting prosperity.
We have always believed in delivering the fresh fish of Choshi Port to people across Japan, just as it was when it was first caught.
This belief, together with our traditional methods, has been passed down through five generations since the Meiji era.
