[Yamayuki Group Mr. Yamayuki Part 2] Introduction of business partners of Nakamata Group Part XNUMX!

Thank you for your continued patronage of the Nakamata Group.

In this blog, we will introduce

Continuing from last week, I would like to talk about "Yamayuki Group Yamayuki", a business partner of the Nakamata Group.

First, let me briefly introduce the Yamayuki Group.

 

■What is the Yamayuki Group?

The Yamayuki Group consists of seven divisions specializing in fresh fish.

The founding spirit of "reform every day, move forward every day",

It is a group that operates under the philosophy of “bringing Japan’s proud washoku culture to the world”.

As an intermediate wholesaler at Tsukiji Market, I have cultivated my discerning skills over many years.

It is a bridge that connects real ingredients from production areas to restaurants and customers.

 

The Nakamata Group does business with

"Yamayuki" is one of the seven divisions that specializes in fresh and frozen tuna.

Yamayuki, an intermediate wholesaler specializing in Tsukiji tuna, handles a wide range of tuna, from domestic natural raw bluefin tuna to lean frozen bigeye tuna.

We are very particular about tuna, and based on our policy of "Never hand over good tuna to other tuna shops,"

It seems that they are doing daily stocking.

Impressed by the policy and the quality of the tuna, Nakamata Group and others,

Famous sushi restaurants and Michelin-starred restaurants

I'm looking for Yamayuki's tuna.

In addition, Yamayuki Group Yamayuki is a business division that competes for tuna with "Sushizanmai (Kiyomura Co., Ltd.)", which is known for its famous president Kiyoshi Kimura.

When it comes to the first auction, Sushi Zanmai is getting a lot of media attention these days.

It seems that the Yamayuki Group also participates in the first auction when they have good tuna.

At the first auction in 2008, Yamayuki became widely recognized in the industry, and now there seems to be no one in the industry who does not know about it.

The group is as famous as you might think.

 

■ Commitment to tuna

Mr. Yamayuki's commitment to tuna is wonderful, and of course he trains his connoisseur every day,

It seems that he even goes to the customers to eat and decides on the tuna that suits the restaurant.

Especially in the case of a sushi restaurant, if you don't wholesale tuna that matches the sushi rice of that restaurant,

It seems that there is a feeling that it will not be really delicious sushi.

Also, if you know the tuna that the restaurant likes and serves to customers,

It seems that tuna below that level will never be sold.

Even if the tuna has been wholesaled once, it will be replaced if the condition deteriorates.

It seems that it will lead to a relationship of trust not only with the customers who visit the store, but also with the business partners.

 

Yamayuki Group's President Yukitaka Yamaguchi has even appeared on Jonetsu Tairiku, highlighting his commitment and passion for tuna.

President Yamaguchi, who now has top-class ability in the wholesale industry,

The start of his success was when he started helping out at a shop run by President Yamaguchi's father when he was in his second year of college.

 

Since then, he has seen, eaten, and experienced a lot of tuna and has trained his eyes.

President Yamaguchi believes that the taste of tuna depends on the feed, aging, and temperature.

Speaking of tuna, it is said that when frozen tuna was common, the highest quality raw tuna was auctioned off every day and lined up in the store.

I believe that the commitment to tuna that has not changed since then is the foundation that supports the Yamayuki Group.

This time, continuing from last week, we are the first business partner of the Nakamata Group.

We have introduced “Yamayuki Group Yamayuki-sama”.

In the future, we would like to introduce other business partners of the Nakamata Group other than Yamayuki.

We will continue to deliver excellent products that satisfy our customers together with our wonderful business partners.

If you are in the area, please stop by the Nakamata Group.
