A Japanese plant-based food company, Fuji Oil is on a mission to create a sustainable future for cuisine. CEO Mikio Sakai notes: “In a world with 10 billion people, food nutrition will be the key. We want to provide high-quality and delicious plant-based food to fulfill this mission.”

Fuji Oil has a long history of producing vegetable oil for chocolate making. Mr. Sakai highlights the firm’s strong presence in the compound chocolate industry, particularly in the North American market, where its subsidiary, Blommer Chocolate Company, creates innovative new products using oil and fats technology in response to rising chocolate prices.



Fuji Oil leverages its MIRACORETM food technology to produce tasty plant-based alternatives that also address global food shortages. Mr. Sakai explains: “This technology combines plant-based oils, fats and proteins to create a satisfying taste experience similar to animal broth. It has applications in products like Japanese restaurant Ippudo’s plant-based tonkotsu ramen, and is also suitable for markets with halal restrictions.”

The company aims to expand overseas to meet demand in Western countries, as well as Islamic nations with halal requirements.
