Purpose

Given that safe and locally-produced foodstuffs are drawing consumers’ attention now, it is of vital importance for Hyogo Prefecture that the production, distribution, and consumption of Hyogo’s locally-produced excellent agricultural, marine and processed foods be enhanced through various measures. One such measure is the promotion of the Certified Foods of Hyogo system in which the local government confirms and accredits the quality and safety of agricultural, marine and processed foods that have unique and special features, further bolstering their competitiveness by establishing brands that utilize local strengths, and comprehensively promotes identifying new demand through overseas sales and promotional activities of locally-produced foodstuffs in Hyogo foods.
