In 2010, we established two operating companies, Tuna Dream Goto Co., Ltd. and Tuna Dream Okinawa Co., Ltd. , to conduct a full cycle bluefin tuna farming business with technical support from Kindai University, the world's first institution to achieve complete bluefin tuna farming. These companies are engaged in intermediate farming, raising juvenile tuna to young fish (yokowa).
In July 2014, we partnered with Kindai University to launch a project for the artificial hatching of bluefin tuna fry, and in December of the same year, we began selling fully-grown tuna after being authorized as "Kindai Tuna." Our products are sold to customers both in Japan and overseas, including department stores and sushi restaurants. By establishing a full-cycle farming process that includes collecting eggs from farmed fish, we aim to ensure the sustainable and stable supply of young fish (yokowa). Through strengthening distribution systems both in Japan and overseas, we strive to pass on Japan's tuna culture to future generations.
