We will continue to develop our strength
as Professionals in Grains
Since being founded in 1936, Showa Sangyo has processed wheat, soybeans, canola, corn, and other grains—the bounty of the earth—into such products as wheat flour, premixes, vegetable oils, and sweeteners, and delivered them to many customers. In the 88 years since then, we have continued to exhaustively study each of these grains, making the Showa Sangyo Group into professionals in grains with extensive knowledge of the power and potential contained in every kernel.
The fact that we are a single corporate group that deals in multiple grains makes us unique among Japan’s many food manufacturers. Our group is a Grain Solution Company that solves our customers’ food challenges and needs by combining the wide-ranging foods and materials we offer. The scope of our business is not limited to the food industry, but extends to customers in a wide range of industries.
As a company that deals in grain, our livelihood is intertwined with grain. Our strong desire to not waste a single kernel has led to our 99.9% food recycling rate. Moving forward, we will continue to leverage our expertise in grains and work behind the scenes to fulfill our social mission of ensuring the safety, reliability, and stable supply of the food that ends up on people’s dinner tables.
