More about the Brand Owner

山本 将志郎

Yamamoto Shoushirou

My parents are plum farmers in Wakayama who have been in business for 119 years, and I grew up eating umeboshi from a young age. As a graduate of Hokkaido University and the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, I have conducted a lot of research and arrived at a product that "really brings out the taste of plums". The company was founded in 2019 with the goal of "making umeboshi that plum farmers can be proud of." With such aspirations, the Ume Boys started a umeboshi shop. We started with light trucks across Japan and bicycles, and now we have about 200 stores handling it. In order to preserve the umeboshi culture, we are also helping to establish umeboshi factories nationwide.

Why are we doing?

Auto-translated
Show original
While I was in college, my brother took over my family's farm.
"After the plums are grown, all the plums have a uniform taste with a sweet seasoning solution, and to be honest, the cultivation is not rewarding."
A word from my brother was the impetus for me to pursue the path of umeboshi.
 
The umeboshi that we have been eating since we were children is pickled with only salt, and it has the original taste of plums and is not sweet.
I learned that such umeboshi is rarely manufactured these days.
Then I thought, "Let's make umeboshi that my brother will be satisfied with."
 
In 2017, I began researching umeboshi, which is a simple plum pickle called "plum, salt, and shiso," which brings out the taste of plums, and studied the deliciousness of plums by comparing the ratios, types, and ripening periods of the ingredients by changing them little by little.
With the cooperation of my brother and other plum farmers,
The pickled plums that make you think, "This umeboshi is delicious" are completed.
It was launched in June 2018.
 
 
 
 
 

What are we doing?

"Connecting Japan's plum trees that have lasted for 1,000 years to the next 1,000 years."
Under the mission of "Umeboshi", we make old-fashioned umeboshi without additives made only with salt and shiso.
 
cultivation
We are working to create a sense of fulfillment in the cultivation of plum farmers and pass it on to the next generation.
Farmers in their 20s and 30s have begun to gather in Wakayama to read and work not only on the cultivation of plums, but also on the revitalization of abandoned farmland.
