Asahi Shokuhin: Think Local, Share Global

3 Traditional Japanese Flavors

Every facet of culture is an insight into the history and the people from whom it belongs. Food is an inescapable part of culture and one that can be shared with people from the outside, it is a form of communication. Since UNESCO has designated washoku—Japanese cuisine—as an intangible cultural heritage, it has enjoyed an explosion of popularity around the globe. With the Japanese government looking to expand exports to JPY 5 trillion, food will play a vital role in reaching those goals.

Asahi Shokuhin Co., Ltd. are major players in bringing Japanese cuisine to new markets, giving more people the opportunity to experience Japanese culture.
