Domestic business development
Dairiki Shoten, which values history and tradition, determines the optimal condition for the freshest fish through expert judgment.
Our mission is to provide consumers with the freshest fish smoothly and reliably.
The Toyosu market in which we operate serves as an infrastructure aimed at ensuring a smooth and stable supply of perishable foods, including fresh fish and shellfish, vegetables, fruits, and meat, all of which are indispensable to daily dietary life.
At this market, we engage in procuring marine products and other shipments from wholesalers who purchase them from producers through auctions and bilateral trading, and then sell them to retailers and restaurants.
Experienced fish experts assess product quality.
Unlike standardized industrial products manufactured in factories, the quality of perishable foods such as fresh fish and shellfish varies significantly based on their origins, harvest conditions, weather patterns, and other factors. Accurately determining the quality of perishables requires years of experience. At Dairiki Shoten, we leverage our experience as an intermediary to sort and ship products while ensuring their quality is thoroughly checked by our reliable fish experts.
We serve as a vital link between wholesalers and retailers to ensure smooth distribution.
At the Toyosu market, all fresh fish and shellfish sourced from producers nationwide are initially consigned to wholesalers collectively. As an intermediary, we collaborate with wholesalers to establish fair market prices by assessing the balance between supply and demand and evaluating the quality of the products. Next, we purchase fresh fish and shellfish from wholesalers, negotiate with customers, and sort and ship them to customers based on the accepted orders.
Valuing history and tradition, Dairiki Shoten provides the finest products to numerous customers.
In our business, which has been ongoing since 1882, we serve as an intermediary between individuals, value our connections with customers, and deliver the finest products in top condition to many restaurants in Japan and abroad.
