What’s PLANET FOOD KITCHEN?
We utilize the blessings of the Earth to create food that minimizes waste. We cook and process “Earth Food” such as grains, livestock, and seafood, and provide it to your dining table, without leaving any part unused. We aim to create a future of “ITADAKIMASU(a japanese expression meaning thank you for all life）” that leads to the next generation, contributing to healthy living and the sustainability of local communities, Japan, the world, and the Earth.
Our vision of “PLANET FOOD”
In Japan, many unused food materials are wasted, which is “Mottainai” (a japanese expression meaning ‘wasteful’). Many of them occur in the supply chain due to weather changes and deterioration, or being out of standard. However, some of them are just wasted, even though they have no problem. Our technologies can reduce such food loss/waste, being able to handle wide range of products. Not just fully using the gift of our planet earth, we would also conform to your manufactural standards. We ‘design’ materials to provide “PLANET FOOD” at your dinner table, to your daily lives.
