ZEN-NOH SPF certified! Vitamin E keeps it fresher, longer — the brand pork that Nagoya is proud of.

Nagoya Pork is a Japanese brand pork (meigara-buta) from Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture, managed by Chita Pig Co., Ltd. Breed / crossbreeding: Female (Large White × Landrace) × Duroc.

Nagoya Pork is an Aichi Prefecture-produced brand pork produced by Chita Pig Co., Ltd., based in Tokoname City, Aichi Prefecture. Pigs carefully raised at the designated fattening location — Nishi Kasamatsu, Kume, Tokoname City — are shipped through Nagoya City Meat Market.

The breed is a three-breed cross — (Large White × Landrace) female crossed with Duroc — an outstanding combination balancing meat quantity, meat quality, and umami. The shipping age is 180 days, shipping weight 110–120 kg — by fattening slowly over time, rich umami is drawn out. Eco-feed is utilized for the feed — also a major defining feature of practicing environmentally conscious rearing utilizing circular food residues.

The greatest strength of Nagoya Pork is that pigs are raised in a clean environment with ZEN-NOH SPF certification — and the point that pork oxidation is suppressed by the Vitamin E-rich feed given. Through the antioxidant action of Vitamin E, the freshness of the pork is maintained for longer — quality is easily maintained even in the distribution process, and a beautiful color and fresh flavor can be maintained until it reaches the consumer’s hands.

Annual shipments approximately 30,000 head — on a large scale, stably distributed centered on Aichi Prefecture through Nagoya Market registered consignors. The trademark was registered on March 10, 2017 — supporting Aichi’s food culture for a long time as a brand pork with a certain commitment to quality. A versatile pork that responds to any preparation including tonkatsu, ginger pork stir-fry, and shabu-shabu.
