Ikari Sauce Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Osaka City, Osaka Prefecture; President and CEO: Kenichi Uwabara) will launch 'Delicious Ketchup with Fully Ripe Tomatoes and Beef 290' on Friday, August 7, 2026. This new ketchup combines the rich umami of fully ripe tomatoes with the deep flavor of beef, enabling easy and satisfying Western-style seasoning at home.

Development Background

Menus using ketchup, such as spaghetti Napolitan and omurice, are popular in Japanese households. However, many consumers feel these dishes are difficult to incorporate into daily meals due to:

・ Difficulty achieving consistent flavor

・ Extra steps required in cooking

Additionally, the number of dishes seasoned with ketchup is limited. Changes in dietary habits and lifestyles have led some people to eat these Western-style dishes less frequently than before. As a result, even though ketchup is liked, its usage occasions remain limited.

This product was developed to address these everyday cooking challenges, offering a ketchup that is easy to use and delivers satisfying flavor.

Product Features

This ketchup delivers rich, satisfying taste with minimal effort by blending the umami of fully ripe tomatoes with the depth of beef.

Feature 1: Umami of Fully Ripe Tomatoes × Richness of Beef

Combines the natural sweetness and depth of fully ripe tomatoes with savory beef flavor for a complex, layered taste.

Feature 2: One Bottle, Perfectly Balanced Seasoning

Feature 3: Effortless, High-Value Daily Meals
