ISHIWATA SHOTEN CO., LTD.Kesennuma is located on the Pacific coast of the Tohoku region and is known as the “shark town.” Ishiwata Shoten was founded in 1957, and since its inception, the company has been researching and developing ways to use sharks under the theme of “cherishing the bounty of the sea and creating a food culture.” Although the company lost its company building and factory in the Great East Japan Earthquake, we decided to rebuild in order to protect the local industry and culture of shark fins, and resumed production in a new building with much support. Since the earthquake, the we have also focused on developing products utilizing local ingredients, and its “Premium Oyster Sauce from Kesennuma” and other products have been well received. Ishiwata Shoten, as one of the companies supporting the reconstruction of the region, is working with local residents to enhance the strength of the entire community. Flexible in the face of the disaster and economic fluctuations, Ishiwata Shoten aims to use its development and technological capabilities to share with the world the bounty of Kesennuma's sea and its food ingredients. We strive to create a safe and delicious food culture and hopes to contribute to the health and happiness of many people through products that make the most of sharks.
