Chord Coffee

Born in Utsunomiya City, Tochigi Prefecture. After graduating from a local high school, he studied cooking at a culinary school and returned to Utsunomiya to work at a café. After gaining experience in sales and product management at a major interior goods store, he is currently in charge of a wide range of operations at "GIFT SELECT SHOP CHORD", focusing on store management, product planning, and public relations activities. Taking advantage of his on-site experience in both food and beverage and miscellaneous goods, he started the "Chord Coffee" brand. It features a gentle blend of flavors based on the concept of "even those who don't like black can drink it deliciously," and it also responds to the demand for limited edition products and gifts unique to the local area. In addition, the international cooperation activities of the certified NPO Aozora, of which he serves as a board member, led to the planning and sale of upcycled miscellaneous goods using used coffee grounds as an SDGs initiative. A portion of the proceeds is used to support maternal and child health in developing countries. We aim to create gifts that are kind to the giver, the recipient, and the future.
