**About Soken-sha**
A food company with a history of over half a century, dedicated to quality.
At the time of its founding in 1968, during Japan's high economic growth period, many food additives such as chemically synthesized fragrances, colorings, and preservatives were being developed, and processed foods made through industrial methods for mass production were rapidly increasing.
Founder Takao Nakamura, based on his personal experience overcoming illness through dietary improvements, 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 Soken-sha with the desire to deliver foods that promote health.
Initially, the company aimed to deliver traditional, additive-free foods to those in need, and gradually began selecting raw materials with careful attention to cultivation and breeding methods.
They use ingredients grown without chemical fertilizers or pesticides, or with low pesticide use and organic cultivation. In response to issues with caged chicken farming, they adopted free-range eggs.
Furthermore, from a health and environmental perspective, they have developed 100% plant-based products, pioneering these efforts early on.
Throughout its more than 50-year history, the company has consistently pursued themes now recognized as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Rather than following food trends, they maintain a stance of questioning, "Is this really okay for the environment and human health in the long term?" and proposing alternative ideas in product form.
This approach is called "Countervision Company," and they continue to act as a company committed to making socially beneficial choices.
