How to choose a Japanese food distributor
Five questions to ask before you open an account
Does it deliver to your area, and on which days? What is the minimum order, and are prices the same for a small restaurant? Can it supply fish and chilled items with an unbroken cold chain, and how often does fish arrive from Japan? Does it carry the certificates your market needs, such as halal or import health certificates? Who answers when an item runs out: is there a sales contact who knows Japanese cuisine? Most restaurants open with one broad distributor for dry goods, sake and frozen items, and add a seafood specialist once the menu is set. Each country guide lists which companies cover the full range and which ones specialise.
Frequently asked questions
Which Japanese food distributors supply restaurants in my country? Find your country above. Each table lists the distributors in our guide for that country, what they supply and where they are based, and the full guide adds import rules and hard-to-source items.
Where can a restaurant buy sushi-grade fish outside Japan? From the seafood specialists listed in the seafood section of this page, and from broad Japanese food distributors that carry frozen and chilled seafood. Ask about air-freighted fish from Japan and delivery days.
Do distributors pay to be listed? No. Companies are listed for their use by Japanese restaurants and their sourcing from Japan. A distributor that wants to be considered for its country guide can register in the Washoku Partner Network, and we check the official site before adding it.
Does Washoku Agent sell ingredients? No. Washoku Agent places Japanese chefs in restaurants outside Japan. We publish these guides because sourcing is one of the first questions owners ask us.
Planning a new Japanese menu? A Japanese chef can help from Japan by video: dishes that fit your kitchen, recipes, and local ingredients that can stand in for hard-to-find ones. See how a project works .
