AKIMO Co., Ltd.
We'd like everyone to stay healthy by eating vegetables in a delicious and enjoyable way
AKIMO's products are grown beside the gentle, pure waters of the Kinugawa River, which runs through Utsunomiya City. The company was founded as Kinugawa Foods Co., Ltd. in 1960. Then from 2006 as AKIMO Co., Ltd., they carried on business under the theme of "vegetables"—a topic that has reflected changing consumer trends worldwide. Vegetables are an indispensable ingredient for our health. Domestically grown vegetables are brought in from all regions of Japan. Then at factories that operate under strict sanitary guidelines and regulated temperatures, products are carefully made and shipped out each day.
