EIWA TRADING Co., LTD.

Eiwa Holdings Co., Ltd. and Eiwa Trading Co., Ltd. are highly specialized trading companies that have been supporting the food industry behind the scenes for over half a century since their establishment in 1963. Driven by their inspiring corporate mission, "Quest for food that colors your life," the companies are deeply dedicated to sourcing safe, delicious, and health-promoting food ingredients from all over the world and delivering them to society.

The organization's core business is categorized into four major domains: Food Flavors, Food Additives, Food Ingredients, and Lactic Acid Bacteria. In the Food Flavors sector, they supply high-quality essential oils, such as orange and garlic oils, which add rich aromas and distinct flavors to beverages and processed foods. The Food Additives segment provides functional ingredients like natural colorants and bittering agents that maintain and enhance food quality. For Food Ingredients, they offer foundational seasoning components like chicken extracts and healthy edible fats such as MCT oil. Furthermore, their rapidly growing Lactic Acid Bacteria division supplies specialized cultures for dairy products, plant-based foods, and functional foods, adding significant health value to consumer products.

What sets Eiwa apart from traditional distributors is its commitment to going beyond simple raw material distribution. Highly knowledgeable staff members leverage an extensive domestic and international procurement network to carefully select the best materials. Moreover, they actively engage in processing value-added products and co-developing entirely new products tailored to their clients' specific needs. In 2021, to further bolster their quality assurance and development capabilities, the company established "PReHUB" in Arakawa-ku, Tokyo. This facility serves as a central hub for logistics, product development, and rigorous quality inspection.

Historically, the business originated as Eiwa Trading Co., Ltd. in 1963 as an agency for mint flavors and spice extracts. In 2010, the original company transitioned into a holding company structure, renaming itself Eiwa Holdings Co., Ltd., while simultaneously establishing a new wholly owned subsidiary under the name Eiwa Trading Co., Ltd. to specialize entirely in sales operations. Today, operating from their modern headquarters in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, the two entities work seamlessly together. Through a relentless pursuit of innovative food solutions, Eiwa continues to bring smiles and happiness to consumers, proving to be an invaluable partner in the ever-evolving global food industry.
