KINOKUNIYA's flagship store in Aoyama, Tokyo.

About KINOKUNIYA

Established 111 years ago in 1910 as a fruit merchant in
Aoyama, Tokyo, KINOKUNIYA is a long-established brand that has paved the way
for the history of supermarkets in Japan. In 1953, the company opened Japan's
first self-service supermarket, modeled after supermarkets in the United states.

�

This innovative company has always taken on new challenges,
such as air-freighting French cheese, which was difficult to obtain at the
time, being the first to import lamb from New Zealand, learning how to produce
processed meats and rare European breads, and taking the initiative in
cultivating high-quality ingredients. Their passion and dedication have thus
earned the trust of customers who are particular about food. Many of these
efforts have changed the landscape of daily life in Japan.

�

Today, in addition to the main store in Aoyama, Tokyo, KINOKUNIYA
has a total of 34 stores, mainly in the Tokyo metropolitan area. These include
stores inside train stations which mainly retail ready-to-eat foods and
specialty bakeries.

�

In the future, KINOKUNIYA will continue to deliver delicious
foods, joy, and excitement to the tables of families by offering a full lineup
of products from Japan and overseas. These include fresh foods, products
developed with partner companies, and specialty breads, baked goods,
delicatessens that have been well loved by consumers over many years.
