Company Profile
Kyokuyo was founded in 1937 as a fishing company and has evolved into one of the worlds leading food processing companies with an emphasis on seafood. Kyokuyo established two food processing plants in
Japan in 1960 and in the early 70's established a cold storage facility. It was during this time that Kyokuyo established an office in Seattle, Washington. In 1973 Tuna operations began on a fleet of frozen-at-sea purse seine vessels.
In the early 80's several more value added plants were established primarily for breading and producing sauces for ready to eat items. In the 90's we set up operations in Qingdao, China for reprocessing. In 2005 a
Joint Venture with K&U Enterprises was created to concentrate on frozen sushi and sushi toppings. The most recent addition for Kyokuyo was to set up
Kyokuyo Europe in Amsterdam in 2006.
Kyokuyo's mission is to continue to strive to maintain your trust by supplying safe, high quality seafood products to our customers.
