A pioneer of bluefin tuna farming

In 2010, Maruha Nichiro became the first private company to achieve 100% egg-to-harvest, farm-raised luefin tuna. We’re now applying our knowledge of fish farming to other fish species and expanding our sales channels in Japan and overseas.

Certifiable protection of marine life

We actively prevent the depletion of resources and protect marine life by gaining MSC and ASC certifications. MSC is given to well-managed and sustainable fisheries, while ASC certifies seafood products raised through responsible aquaculture.

Eliminating waste in the supply chain means using natural resources effectively by reducing plastics in product containers and packaging and utilizing fishery waste during food processing.
