About Soken-sha:A dedicated food company with over half a century of history.In 1968, the year of its founding, during a period of rapid economic growth, many food additives such as chemically synthesized flavors, colorings, and preservatives were developed, and industrially produced processed foods for mass production were rapidly increasing.Founder Takao Nakamura advocated, "Food and how we eat are inevitably connected to how we live. To improve our diet is to improve our way of life." Sensing a crisis in the changing Japanese food environment, he founded Soken-sha with the desire to deliver foods that contribute to better health.We have consistently pursued themes that are now discussed as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for over half a century.Rather than being swayed by food trends, we are a company that questions, "Is this okay for the long-term good of society, considering the environment and human health?" and proposes alternatives in the form of products, asking, "Could we do this better?"We call this stance a "Counter Vision Company" and will continue to uphold a corporate stance of making good choices for society.
