What is FORTI GLACÈ?
A next-generation frozen bread series finished with the “minus-40-degree magic.” Each loaf is flash-frozen at temperatures as low as –40 °C
the moment it leaves the oven, locking in its aroma, flavor, and just-baked texture. After thawing, the bread tastes as if it were freshly baked.

KuKuRu Co., LTD.
Transforming the Livestock Industry: A Brand with Purpose
We partnered with visionary livestock consultant Masashi Iiyama, whose expertise contributed to Kagoshima being crowned “Japan’s Best Wagyu Producer” at the 12th National Wagyu Competitive Exhibition. Driven by his mission to connect farmers, feed suppliers, and transporters, Iiyama founded his company with a goal to uplift the livestock industry. From the company name and logo to product branding, packaging, and promotional materials, we designed it all. Just over a year since its founding, his company has earned nationwide recognition. We are honored to continue supporting his efforts to revolutionize livestock production in Kagoshima and beyond.
KIKUCHAN NO MAINICHI TAMAGO
We were responsible for the branding design of "Kiku-chan's Daily Eggs" at the Ijuin store for Kikunaga Egg Farm Co., Ltd. This marks the third store following the Yoshino and Nakayama locations.

ULTRAS KAGOSHIMA
I had the honor of handling the branding design—including concept, catchphrase, logo, symbol mark, emblem, and promotional materials—for Kagoshima United FC's supporter group, ULTRASKAGOSHIMA. The organization is led by the son of my childhood friend, and I was truly impressed by his passionate determination.
Amakuchi Sashimi 200ml
Fujiyasu Jozo Co., Ltd.
I was responsible for designing the sealed bottle for Fujiyasu Jozo Co., Ltd.'s new product, “Amakuchi Sashimi 200ml.” For the background, I arranged the logo of the “Hishiku” product brand—as redesigned in 2020—as a decorative pattern.
This product, characterized by its moderately sweet flavor, richness, and umami, is ideal for serving in small portions, making it perfect not only for culinary use but also as a standout item on your dining table. The freshness-preserving bottle keeps the freshly made aroma and taste locked in for a long time.
It is currently available at Aecoop, Yamagataya Store, Aeon, Maxvalu, and other retailers. Please give it a try!
