At Arimoto, in order to realize the brand's worldview of "making the most of the power of natural ingredients and delivering rice crackers that are gentle on the body," we are thoroughly committed to everything from raw material selection to manufacturing process and product development.
First of all, only domestic organic brown rice is used as raw materials.
Brown rice certified as organic is grown using environmentally friendly farming methods without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
By directly cooperating with farmers and disclosing production area information, we promise safety and security to our customers.
Unlike white rice, brown rice is rich in nutrients and contains a good balance of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. At Arimoto, we use "whole" brown rice without shaving it at all, so we deliver the blessings of nature as it is.
We also have great attention to the manufacturing process. We consistently handle everything from making the rice cracker dough to baking in-house, and the craftsmen carefully finish each piece without leaving it to the machine.
100% brown rice dough is difficult to process and requires subtle moisture content and temperature control, but the craftsmen interact with the dough to create the optimal condition.
In addition, seasonings such as soy sauce and salt are also used with domestic ingredients and traditional manufacturing methods, pursuing a deep flavor.
In addition, Arimoto is actively working on the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals).
We are also focusing on solving social issues such as reducing the environmental impact of using organic rice, reducing food loss, and employing people with disabilities. Through community activities such as hand-baked rice cracker experiences, we also value food education and connections with local communities.
Each of these commitments supports the worldview of Arimoto's brand of "body-friendly rice crackers".
We take pride in utilizing the wisdom and blessings of nature to deliver safe, secure, and delicious products.
