Since the company was established in 1950, Somi Foods has grown with the development of the restaurant industry. We expanded into the field of home use seasonings in 1987, and our product is now well received by individual customers through mass merchandisers nationwide. In 2012, we started to expand our business overseas and our products are now available in more than 50 countries. We are proud to share our culture of Japanese food with the world.
We believe that good food is something that should make people smile. We will continue to pursue “deliciousness” and seek to bring smiles to everyone involved with our company.
To spread Japanese food culture throughout the world, we will continue to work step by step in the spirit of our company motto that “積小為大=Accumulate Small to Achieve Greatness”.
We look forward to your continual support of Somi Shokuhin.
Our goal to create a handmade taste
Since its establishment in 1950, Somi Shokuhin has been engaged mainly in the development and production of seasonings for professional use. For over 70 years we have been in serious competition with professional chefs and Somi has continually tried to understand what “deliciousness” is.
Even with our state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities and over 40 members of our development staff, it isn't easy to create the taste of handmade products that tend to require time and care to make. Taking the production of Dashi (Japanese soup stock) as an example, the traditional method of production has been nurtured over the years and it’s true that some aspects are incompatible with factory production, which focuses on efficiency.
How do we solve this contradiction?
We choose raw materials with an emphasis on quality over cost, and by understanding the essence of the traditional processes involved we have the means to continue stable manufacturing.
By constantly researching and improving our products daily, we pursue a taste that is as close to handmade as possible.
Our respect for chefs is always at the root of our work.
