Buying

Every box is checked before we bid.

Uni arrives from producers across Hokkaido and is laid out lot by lot. We check color, grain and firmness, then buy against your order and our standing allocations.

Cutting

Tuna cut to your spec at the wholesaler's stall.

We buy wild and farmed bluefin from Toyosu tuna wholesalers such as Yamaharu, and have it sectioned into harakami, haranaka, senaka or blocks to match your order before it comes to our packing floor.
