I want to bring excitement to people through making ham and sausages

Mr. Nakayama has been particular about continuing to make "the taste of our shop that can only be served by yourself" and "delicious things that people do not make".

Even ham and sausages, which are said to be a standard standard, we are conducting research and improvement on "how to make it more delicious."

"I want to make ham and sausages that can impress people," he spent time and effort and worked on his work without compromise.

We have developed and sold Frank using pesticide-free cabbage purchased from local farmers and pork "Hamapaku" pork from Yokohama, and have been well received. We are currently working on the development of Frank using Yokohama vegetables other than cabbage.

In addition, we hold sausage making experience classes, and provide guidance to students from elementary school students to high school students in the livestock department, and local people. We also actively participate in local activities, such as opening stores for our own products at inhabitants' festivals and shopping streets.

Meister's skill

Ichiro Nakayama Meister’s work

He has a wealth of knowledge about pork, and pursues better ingredients without compromising the selection of ingredients, such as changing the amount and type of side ingredients such as salt, and pursues better ingredients.

In addition, since the taste of meat changes subtlely depending on the season, we wanted to deliver products of the same quality and taste to customers regardless of the season, we devised and devised a method of kneading sausages, thorough temperature control and careful work. We make ham and sausages that make use of the taste and texture of meat.
