A list of brand pork from Toyama, Japan. We cover two brands from Toyama: Toyama Pork and Kurobe Meisui Pork. Each article details the breed, feed, upbringing, and where to find it.

The two brands we cover from Toyama are Toyama Pork, the collective name for prefecture-raised pork quality-managed by the Toyama Pig Farmers' Federation, and Kurobe Meisui Pork, fed on Kurobe River spring water and bamboo vinegar, where only the top 30 percent by meat quality earn the name. Toyama Pork is processed at the prefecture's only meat-processing facility, the Toyama Meat Center, while Kurobe Meisui Pork was developed by the Kurobe City Pig Farmers' Association together with JA ZEN-NOH Toyama. Nearby, we also cover Niigata (12 brands), Gifu (6 brands) and Ishikawa (2 brands).
