Our story

ONO FOODS CO., LTD used be a small company dealing in dried fish locally in Kamaishi city, Iwate prefecture. The current president Akio Ono once worked in one of the major supermarket chains, but decided to take over its business after the sudden death of his father. Since then, 30 years has passed and the sales volume has grown by 30 times more.

“We supply delicious, convenient and healthy food, with our expertise of product development that satisfies the needs of customers.”

When our company was launched, we just followed the instructions of distributors in Tokyo to pursue large volume sales, which means we needed to endure small margins. Additionally, our city Kamaishi is far from city area, so the logistics cost is also high. Therefore, we have shifted part of our business into “B to C with mail-order system” and we started to invest in our R&D team to meet the demands of our final consumers.

 Ex.) The demand is  We developed the product series that has the features below.

The mail order product series, https://www.shop-onoya.com/ (sorry, Japanese only)

Our range of seafood products are getting more and more popular in the final consumers and as the gift.

At the same time, we tried to apply the development skills to the industrial market. In recent years, the sales volume of industrial items has begun to increase again.
