Oisix ra daichi and Integriculture Sign Joint Development Agreement; Integriculture Decides to Join 'Niigata Food Tech Town Concept'

Oisix ra daichi Inc. (President and CEO: Kohei Takashima; hereinafter "Oisix ra daichi"), a provider of food subscription services, and Integriculture Inc. (CEO: Yuki Hanyu; hereinafter "Integriculture") have concluded a joint development agreement on January 22, 2026, aimed at the "development and evaluation of dishes using cellular food (*1) produced by utilizing the food resources of Niigata Prefecture."

Furthermore, in March 2026, Integriculture decided to participate in the "Niigata Food Tech Town Concept" promoted by Oisix ra daichi and the NSG Group (Headquarters: Niigata City, Niigata Prefecture). By fusing the strengths of both companies, we aim to create one of the few "regional brand cellular foods" in the world, utilizing the rich food resources of Niigata.

■ Background to the Conclusion of the Joint Development Agreement and Integriculture's Participation in the "Niigata Food Tech Town Concept"

Currently, as efforts progress toward the social implementation of cellular agriculture (*2), we believe that it is important to create context and add value to cellular food so that it is favored by consumers, rather than simply presenting it as a food made with new technology. Taking the conclusion of this joint development agreement and Integriculture's participation in the "Niigata Food Tech Town Concept" as an opportunity, both companies will explore the potential of "Niigata brand" cellular food combined with local products, utilizing their respective food tech technologies and marketing know-how. Through this, we will advance initiatives to develop high value-added cellular food that possesses a story, including the charm of the local Niigata area.

(*1 Cellular food: A food material made by growing cells collected from livestock, fish, etc. Also referred to as cell-cultured food or cultured meat/fish.)
(*2 Cellular agriculture: An industry that produces food and resources by growing animal and plant cells.)

- Integriculture's Role: Prototyping samples of cellular food and evaluating the prototypes.
- Oisix ra daichi's Role: Menu development, product prototyping, and evaluating the prototypes using the cellular food samples.

■ Future Outlook
We will advance the development of Niigata brand cellular food in 2026, and plan to concretely design the development schedule in April 2026.
