Around the early 2000s, I was shocked to see fields of genetically modified soya beans in the USA. The field had been sprayed with herbicide from an aeroplan and was weed-free, yet only the soya beans were growing lushly. And not a single insect was attached to the soya beans. Witnessing this bizarre scene, I strongly felt that organic and natural food is needed in Japan, the country that consumes these soya beans and corn.

A few years later, in 2005, the company was launched. At the time, the mangoes I loved so much were hardly distributed in Japan, and I wanted to tell the Japanese people about the taste of mangoes.
Then I set my first mission to promote organic mangoes in Japan. And I named my company MANGOS. I have created many products and projects based on the desire I had at the time of starting this business to “help people through food” and “make people happy”, as well as the spirit of challenge to achieve these goals. And I will continue to take on challenges in the future. Please look forward to the future of MANGOS.
