Our story

OUR HERITAGE

Azuma Foods is established in 1966 by our founder, Mr. Toshionobu Azuma, in Mie-prefecture of Japan.  We have grown our business around the world and now we have production facilities in Japan, the USA, Canada, China and Peru. We specialize in frozen seafood and salad manufacturering. Our main items are fish caviar called Masago & Tobikko that you typically see in sushi restaurants, a popular seaweed salad, as well as popular izakaya items such as Tako Wasabi and Sea urchin paste.   We’ve seen the growing popularity of Japanese cuisine and its versatility to infuse with other cultural food and cuisines.   We like to continue developing both authentic Japanese items and neo-Japanese food with integrity and determination. 

OUR MISSION

Canada is such a great country where diverse culture and ethnicities live together. Through the presence of azuma-tei, we like to present opportunities to explore Japanese culture and Japanese food.Our mission is same as what our founder Mr. Azuma has been doing over 55years which is to stay as a pioneer and introduce both authentic and infused tastes of Japanese cuisine to people around the world. 

OUR VISION

Our vision is to keep on developing and providing very tasty and convenient items like “ready to eat” or “ready to microwave” items.

We will also bring opportunities to let you learn and experience Japanese culture, Japanese hospitality “omotenashi” and Japanese entertainment in the future.
