Representative Director Message
“Passing the Baton
to the Next Century,
for a Future Created
by Food”
Representative Director
Kazuo Ito
Mitsubishi Shokuhin was established in 2011 through the integration of four food distribution companies. In 2025, we marked a significant milestone: the 100th anniversary of Hokuyo Shokai, the predecessor company from which we inherited our business foundation.
Today, the food distribution industry is undergoing a period of profound transformation. Demographic shifts, growing challenges to logistics sustainability, increasingly diverse consumer needs, and the rapid advance of digitalization are reshaping the business landscape at an unprecedented speed. Even amid these accelerating changes, we will build on the adaptability and resilience we have cultivated over the years to open the way toward our next hundred years.
Through this ongoing commitment, we strive not only to create economic value, but also to contribute meaningfully to the resolution of societal challenges. All of us across the company will continue to move forward with this shared purpose. We sincerely appreciate your continued support and look forward to building the future together.
