Introduction of our products
Fresh tuna
Natural bluefin tuna
Most of the tuna that we provide are bluefin tuna.
Natural bluefin tuna varies in landing area, fishing methods, and its quality in each season. It can be bought not only from the landing port but also from Toyosu market, Osaka market, and Kyoto market so that it can meet customers’ requests throughout the year.
Farmed bluefin tuna
We also sell a large number of farmed tuna, which can be supplied consistently.
We are able to provide a stable supply of farmed bluefin tuna along with the taste that customers really want. Whether it be farmed or wild tuna, we can offer tuna with a high fat or red meat content in relation to size.
We also handle a number of large-sized, farm-fattened “Kyoto Ine tunas”, which lands in Ine town, Kyoto from November to the beginning of February, we are highly recommending trying these.
Yellowfin tuna, Bigeye tuna
Many of the retailers are using red meat of yellowfin and bigeye tuna, which are mainly collected directly from Kishu Katsuura Port, from all over the country, and also from overseas such as Taiwan and Indonesia.
We will strictly select the tuna sorted at the landing port and provide red meat that will make your shop beautifully colored.
Frozen Tuna
Frozen Farm-fattened bluefin tuna from the Mediterranean island of Malta
A local manufacturer that we trust makes it possible to let an excellent sniper dive into the fish preserve in the sea and precisely spear the tuna without giving any stress. Then, they are captured immediately on the ship anchored at the sideway to it. After that, they are cut into fillets and frozen to preserve the freshness. It takes only 30 minutes from capturing and freezing them in the shape of loin. This rapid process suppresses the drip after thawing it out, and makes it difficult to discolor.
Frozen yellowfin tuna, bigeye tuna
At a factory for freezing tuna in Busan port, South Korea, yellowfin tuna and bigeye tuna are collected from fisheries around the world. A manufacturer strictly assesses each fish one by one and then freezes them.
We can divide the product into three levels according to the customers’ preference: skinless, the dark flesh cut-off, and fixed form.
