【Award report】The Food Service Organization for excellence in commerce for export Japan product
In the first year of Reiwa, we received a prize an award, the Chairman’s Award, from the Chairman of the Food Service Organization for excellence in commerce for exporting Japanese products.
This award is for companies engaged in the export of Japanese products. It is to commend the activities and promotion for exporting Japanese agricultural, forestry, foods and marine products in order to further deepen the understanding of Japanese food and food culture overseas.
We have received glowing reviews for what we have achieved since we started our company e.g. online sales of our tea for internationally, the 3 month internship program in our rural tea village, Wazuka, and our tea club membership program.
As you might know, tea cannot exist without the people who farm it but also the people who drink it. We would not have won the prize without all your support, love, and passion for tea so we really appreciate that you chose our tea and enjoy it.
In the photo you can see our president, Akky, who is not usually in the office because he is always taking care of our tea fields to be able to make delicious tea for everyone. He stopped by the office when it was raining and was thrilled to find out about the prize and he even gave us a classic Akky pose with great pleasure!
Thank you again for what you’ve done for us to support tea culture in Japan. We will continue to work hard to spread delicious Japanese tea. Sharing our passion for tea with as many people as possible as well as being very excited with the prospect of attracting more and more attention from overseas during this Olympic year. Please stay tuned to travel the world of Japanese tea together, making more fun tea stories with us all the while!
