An Online Shopping Experience to Enjoy as if Traveling Through Hokkaido, Kyoto, and Okinawa

Hokkaido, Kyoto, and Okinawa are representative popular regions in Japan, consistently ranking high in the "Prefectural Attractiveness Ranking" conducted by Brand Research Institute.

Each of these three regions, with its distinct history, culture, nature, and food, is home to numerous attractive products and businesses not yet known nationwide.

SAN to Marche introduces ingredients nurtured by Hokkaido's rich nature, exquisite items imbued with Kyoto's tradition and spirit, and specialty products that evoke Okinawa's climate and culture, offering a shopping experience as if traveling through these three regions.

The Vision Behind SAN to Marche

The site name "SAN to" carries multiple meanings:

- SAN to (三都) = Three Cities

- SAN (産) = Production Area

- to = Connect

It was named with the desire to connect the three regions of Hokkaido, Kyoto, and Okinawa, and to serve as a bridge connecting the appeal of each production area with consumers nationwide.

Furthermore, by promoting their charms across regions, we aim to increase interest in and interaction with the regions, contributing to regional revitalization.
