Founded in 1960, Naniwa Kombu works with kombu to offer a wide variety of products derived from this seaweed without additives, preservatives or any other chemical seasoning. The kombu is matured for more than 3 years in warehouses with carefully controlled temperatures and humidity. Faced with limited production and skyrocketing prices, the company is seeking to expand the cultivation of good kombu to spread a true umami taste in Japan and around the world. To this end, Naniwa Kombu has developed its own brand "Tsuku-shin" and directly operates two stores dedicated to selling their products.
