About

The face-to-face carp farm mainly sells Nishikigoi and started in 1960 in Kure City, Hiroshima Prefecture.

The first generation, Mr. Ryuzo Mensako, was fascinated by the Nishikigoi at that time and worked hard to prosper Nishikigoi as a distributor in this area. I purchased Nishikigoi in Kojiya City, Niigata Prefecture, the birthplace of Nishikigoi, and spent hours in a car loaded with fish tanks to bring them back to Hiroshima.

None of the Nishikigoi have the same pattern, and the unique pattern has attracted the public to see it as entertainment since that time.

Among the many species of Nishikigoi that are divided into colors and patterns, "white shori", which is patterned in "white" and "black", is a very important variety for the face-to-face carp farm.

Currently, we have a carp farm in Tochihara-cho, Kure City, and are focusing on production specializing in this "white photo". We made a major shift in business from the distribution industry to the production industry.

In recent years, this "white copy" has won numerous awards and has been active at competitions held in various places. At the world's most prestigious "All Japan Nishikigoi Competition" held once a year, we were able to achieve the "Best in Species Award" awarded to the best Nishikigoi in the category for 12 consecutive years, which is divided by variety and given to the best Nishikigoi among the varieties. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the people involved in Nishikigoi and the enthusiasts who support me for their recognition of my many years of efforts.

Nishikigoi are also growing day by day.

The breeding technology and breeding equipment related to this are also evolving day by day.
