From Handa City, Aichi — a soft and juicy brand pork born of rigorous, uncompromising hygiene management.
Ishikawa Sanchi Aipork (Ishikawa Farm’s Ai Pork) is a brand pork produced by Brio Co., Ltd., based in Handa City, Aichi Prefecture. Fattened at two locations — Handa Farm and Tokoname Yada Farm — boasting a large-scale production system of approximately 33,000 head shipped annually. The breed is a three-breed cross — Large Yorkshire × Landrace female crossed with Duroc male — achieving a high-level balance of both meat quality and meat productivity. Shipping age is 175 days, shipping weight 110–120 kg — thoroughly managed, delivered to consumers in the optimal condition. The feed uses a proprietary designated compound feed developed in collaboration with a feed manufacturer. Through a special order feed design, ingenuity to draw out the fineness and juiciness of the meat is incorporated — finished as pork with the authentic umami of pork firmly accumulated. The meat quality characteristics include a soft, juicy texture — and with a subtle sweetness and clean finish in the fat, it is easy to pair with a wide range of preparations including tonkatsu, ginger pork stir-fry, shabu-shabu, and yakiniku. High standards are also maintained in hygiene management — Farm HACCP obtained in June 2018, and JGAP in January 2019. Furthermore, with trademark registration completed in 1999 and a designated sales store system also in place — a system protecting the reliability and rarity of the brand is established. Distribution is handled by Nakanihonn Food as the primary wholesale company — purchasable through designated sales stores nationwide.
