Change with the times
Since our founding in the first year of the Keio period (1865), J Maeda with the generous support of our staff has grown steadily from pre 1940’s as a confectionary manufacturer to post 1940’s as a wholesale business operator of raw materials.
Along with the milestone of reaching our 150th anniversary we continue to strive to grow as a global company based on our three main pillars of industry, 1st the wholesale business, 2nd manufacturing and 3rd trading(import & export) .
We will continue to provide our best effort in the development of the industry without overlooking changes to economic environments.
