◆Background of Launch
In recent years, while "time-saving" and "convenience" have been demanded of frozen foods, "ingredient deliciousness" and "quality" are also highly valued when choosing food products. Our company is involved in the potato business from variety development to procurement, product development, and sales, and we want to deliver the appeal of Hokkaido-grown potatoes to more people.
Therefore, with this product, we have enhanced the natural sweetness and umami of the ingredients by combining Hokkaido-grown potatoes with fragrantly stir-fried Hokkaido-grown corn and onions. The result is a product that allows you to enjoy the deliciousness of Hokkaido ingredients in a single bite.
Furthermore, we aim to revitalize the hash brown category by proposing hash browns, which have been popular primarily for breakfast, for a wide range of occasions such as snacks, side dishes for dinner, and appetizers, under the concept of "Hokkaido's blessings on your everyday dining table."
Calbee Potato will continue to create new value for potatoes and aim for sustainable agriculture that allows producers to farm with peace of mind.
