The beginning of "AJINO HYOSHIRO"
In 1900, a small restaurant was opened in a rural town called Shonai-machi located in the Kaho County of Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan.
Mantaro Nomiyama named his restaurant as "KAPPO HYOSHIRO", which means culinary/cuisines of Hyoshiro.
Shortly after the restaurant opening, it gained a reputation for its good taste. Mantaro's personality was also loved by the locals. The restaurant business thus increases.
Mantaro's grandson, Masaaki Nomiyama, grew up listening to his grandfather's work. Among the successful stories of his grandfather’s restaurant, the one that impressed Masaaki most was his grandfather’s service mindset towards the restaurant’s customers. Mantaro has always been most concerned about whether the customers are happy or satisfied with the food served. Masaaki, the founder of "Ajino Hyoshiro" (meaning flavors of Hyoshiro), thus added "Hyoshiro" to the company’s name as he wants to inherit the same service mindset of his grandfather, Mantaro.
We at Hyoshiro will continue to have the commitment in providing delicious food that will bring warm and smile to our customers.
“HYOSHIRO DASHI” was created from our desire to provide delicious food that can be prepared conveniently even when you are busy.
We are the pioneer in developing dashi packs (tea-bag style) that contains Flying Fish.
This delicious product which is adored by many Japanese customers for many years is now available for customers who are staying outside Japan.
Besides “HYOSHIRO DASHI”, we have also created many other delicious food products after reviewing customers’ feedback.
We are thus confident to recommend our products to you.
