A Flour Milling Legacy of Success

The story begins in 1945 as the company named ‘Nagano Shojo’ is founded in Nagano prefecture.
By 1948 the company had changed name to ‘Nagano Seikoku’ and started a wheat flour milling business.
Over the next few years production was in full force, which included expansions to a new soba flour milling factory in Matsumoto by 1964.
Once again, the company would go  through another name change to ‘Nikkoku’ which is used today.
By 2002, the company was  reaping all the rewards as they won a slew of accomplishments such as winning multiple Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Awards for their soba.
In 2011 they finally  established a brand-new pasta factory in Nagano, the launch of their venture into the world of pasta.
Today, they continue to flourish as their ever-growing award collection and company expansion grows.
