Tuna, puffer fish, and skipjack tuna are filleted or cut into 3 pieces, vacuum-packed, and then frozen for delivery. The company has been using “TOMIN” for more than 15 years, and sometimes processes 1 to 2 tons in a single day.

The company purchases large quantities of expensive fish when the catch is cheap and plentiful, and freezes with TOMIN. According to Mr. Otsubo, the biggest advantage of processing large quantities of fish during the low price period is that it enables the stable delivery of fish at a stable price throughout the year. In addition, processing by “fTOMIN” can restore the taste and texture of the fish to a state close to that of raw fish after thawing, making it a product we are proud of.

By offering menu suggestions to their customers using frozen products, we have gained dozens of new customers. We systematically secure a certain amount of products so that we can immediately respond to customer requests,” he said. We are able to stock because we are able to maintain quality without irregularities in finishing due to TOMIN. Even though our landings are low, we have been able to minimize lost opportunities.”

In the fisheries industry, where prices fluctuate wildly, our customers are effectively using “TOMIN” as a weapon of differentiation.
