Based in Iwaki, in Fukushima Prefecture, Taawhia Co., Ltd. develops environmentally friendly food products using rice flour made from its own cultivated rice. Its name, inspired by a Polynesian term evoking emotion and hospitality, reflects its desire to convey well-being, trust and conviviality through food.
Deeply attached to the natural and cultural riches of its region, often nicknamed the "Hawaii of Tōhoku", the company places emphasis on quality, food safety and inclusion, particularly by offering products suited to people with food allergies. Through a "farm to table" approach, Taawhia champions the terroir of Iwaki and aspires to share its flavours both in Japan and internationally.
