A legacy worth sharing

TOKIO began with a simple belief.
That exceptional produce should be treated with care, respect, and pride.

My great-grandfather, Tokio, started this journey back in 1965.

What began in Japan as a commitment to quality has grown into something I’m proud to continue today.

Hi, I’m Daichi Nakao

This is more than just a business.

I grew up around a standard where quality wasn’t optional.
It was expected.

Every product had to earn its place.
Every detail mattered.

TOKIO-US is how I carry that forward.
Not by changing it, but by staying true to what made it special from the beginning.

From Japan to the U.S.

TOKIO-US is a family-owned business with a rich heritage spanning nearly six decades.

For years, we’ve proudly exported premium Japanese produce across Asia.
From Singapore to Hong Kong, Taiwan, the Philippines, and Thailand.

Now, for the first time, we’re bringing this level of quality to the U.S. market.
Exclusively in Southern California.

What We Stand For

We don’t treat premium like a label.
We treat it like a responsibility.

Integrity in how we source and deliver

1


Creativity in how we present and share

2


Empathy in understanding what our customers value

Excellence in every detail, every time

More than just produce

We don’t just import fruits and vegetables.

We share a story.
A legacy.
A standard that has been built over generations.

And now, it’s here for you to experience.

From our family to yours

TOKIO-US carries a name that means something.

A history.
A promise.
A commitment to doing things the right way.

Thank you for being part of that journey.
