No compromise on ingredients
The words of the company's founder, Nobuyuki Kawai.
These encompass the company's founding spirit, that "there are many similar products in the world, but we will make products that other companies can't imitate."
When we talk about products that other companies can't imitate, we mean products that use the finest raw materials, delivered while they are at their most flavorful.
That is why we use exactingly chosen ingredients from specific production sites in our products.
We will continue to use selected materials to provide safe, secure and delicious products to the customers.

High-quality groundwater
A factory with the fragrance of steamed rice in the air, ringing to the sound of it being pounded.
Our company steams glutinous rice to create "okowa" sticky rice. The reason behind this is that we place great importance on the fragrance of the rice. By pounding the steamed okowa, its texture and firmness begin to change. Through this kind of laborious work, we continue to produce genuine rice crackers, with their flavors reminiscent of times gone by.
