To open an Aohata product is to unlock superior farming techniques and advanced food manufacturing processes for the freshest raw materials. For more than 70 years, Aohata has been showcasing nature’s bounty through its fine selection of jams, spreads and juices – products that have earned their rightful spots in many household cupboards as delicious and nutritious accompaniments to any meal.
Aohata is a renowned jam and preserves pioneer in Japan, founded at the centre of citrus production in the Seto Inland Sea. It was this same jam factory that introduced the first low-sugar jam in 1970 – way ahead of today’s rising health consciousness movement among consumers. Flagship brand Marugoto Kajitsu, composed of whole fruits without sugar, is available in most Asian markets.
“We are always mindful of our social responsibilities. This is the reason why we control every step of the supply chain. We guarantee quality from farm to table,” says president Norio Yamamoto.
