<About Souken-sha>

A food company with a history spanning over half a century, dedicated to quality foods.

Founded in 1968 during Japan’s high economic growth period, when many chemically synthesized flavorings, colorings, preservatives, and industrially processed foods for mass production were rapidly increasing.

The founder, Takao Nakamura, based on his own experience overcoming illness through improved diet, advocated that "what we eat and how we eat it are always connected to how we live. Improving our diet is about improving our way of life." Feeling a sense of crisis about Japan’s changing food environment, he established Souken-sha to deliver foods that promote health.

Initially, the company focused on traditional, additive-free foods for those seeking such products, gradually selecting raw materials with careful attention to cultivation and breeding methods.

They use ingredients grown without chemical fertilizers and pesticides, or with low pesticide use and organic cultivation, and adopted free-range eggs in response to issues with caged poultry.

Furthermore, in discussions about health and the environment, they pioneered the development of 100% plant-based products, among other initiatives, ahead of market trends.

Over more than 50 years, they have consistently pursued themes now recognized as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Rather than following fleeting food trends, they maintain a perspective that questions, "Is this okay for the environment and human health in the long term?" and propose alternative ideas in product form. We call this approach the "Countervision Company," committed to making socially beneficial choices.
