Establishment
In 1871 |
In 1871 (Meiji 4), Hango Okui, a descendant of Samurai, established our company
as a Konbu merchant at Tsuruga Port. At that time,
Tsuruga Port was prosperous, and large quantities of Konbu were unloaded there. |

In the middle of the Meiji Era, our 2nd president Tatsunosuke Okui obtained the
"Goyoutashi" license from Eiheiji Temple and opened business, since then we have
maintained it for over 100 years. |
