Japanese Glass Shrimp Processing

Japanese glass shrimp, known as the "Jewel of Toyama Bay," are considered luxurious and expensive due to the small annual catch. In the past, it was only consumed locally because it was difficult to transport and preserve due to its rapid loss of freshness, but with the development of processing technology, it is now becoming increasingly popular in all regions of Japan.

​​Firefly Squid Processing

Firefly squid, known as the "Mystery of Toyama Bay," come to the shores of Toyama Bay from March to May to spawn. In recent years, firefly squid have been landed in other areas, but they are not as tasty or as large as those from Toyama, the home of firefly squid. We process Kitokito firefly squid while they are still fresh and deliver their seasonal flavor to you throughout the year.
