Company Information

Our company, BSO, was founded in September 2019 by splitting off the wholesaling and processing division of our parent company, Ohguchi Suisan, coinciding with the 80th anniversary of their founding.

Alongside our company’s founding, we have also established a new processing plant located near the Kanazawa Central Wholesale Market, which offers seafood from off the shores of the Hokuriku region and from Japan as a whole. This processing plant is equipped with the latest processing equipment, allowing us to meet even broader customer needs than ever before.

BSO is unique in another way, as well: it is the first of our group companies with a name based in English, rather than Japanese. Our name comes from an abbreviation of “Best Selection Ohguchi,” representing our strong drive to provide the best services to satisfy customers, and establish ourselves as the best option available.

Population decline has left the marine product industry apprehensive about labor shortages. By handling labor-intensive processing of seafood on the behalf of our customers, we provide the support needed to allow our customers to focus on their own businesses — we hope to deliver not just outsourced products but also peace of mind, and that they will continue to choose us for their needs.

We also plan to expand into overseas markets, contributing to international society by sharing the delicious seafood of Japan — particularly from Kanazawa — with people around the world.

On behalf of all of us at BSO, thank you very much for your continued support and patronage. We look forward to providing exceptional processed seafood products for many years to come.
