Grain, Oilseeds & Feedstuff

Meat Products

The Grain, Oilseeds & Feedstuff Division stably procures the grains and production materials that form the foundation for diverse food production from around the world, providing stable supplies to food product manufacturers in Japan and Asia.
While increases in grain prices have leveled off for the time being, the global population continues to grow, and the increase in the middle-income population,in particular, is driving rapid growth in demand for protein. As such, demand for grain used in protein production is also expected to see continued growth.
Amid mounting risks posed by climate change and geopolitical factors, we constantly strive to enhance our ability to provide a stable supply and consistent quality.

The Grain, Oilseeds & Feedstuff Division supplies goods and services that are the basis for foods raging from grain and agricultural products including rice, wheat, soybeans, and corn, through agricultural processed foods, such as pasta, to feedstuff and fertilizer.
Our philosophy is to contribute to the development of the world’s agriculture, foods, and dietary life with our creativity and innovation as well as our traditional challenging spirit. Under this philosophy, we aim to contribute to the dietary habits of people around the world and raise the quality of the lives of people in local communities through our efforts to provide safe and secure foods. We are committed to creating a value-added value chain, especially in Asia’s food market, as its economy is growing strongly along with its rising population. Meanwhile, in the domestic market, we work to ensure our efforts to go beyond conventional trading and create added value through cultivating smart agriculture with ICT while promoting higher efficiency in the dairy farming and livestock industry. Furthermore, we strive to strengthen our food safety management system and provide our customers with additional safe and secure foods.
