The Crisis of the Quail Industry ~Our Thoughts~
Due to culling caused by bird flu and reduced usage due to aspiration accidents, coupled with issues like aging and a shortage of successors, the quail industry faces problems similar to other industries. Some quail farmers are choosing to go out of business due to pessimism about the future, and if this continues, the entire domestic quail egg industry may decline. In fact, the number of quail farmers in Toyohashi City, Aichi Prefecture, has decreased from 42 to just 5 in the past 30 years.
Aichi Prefecture accounts for approximately 60% of Japan's quail egg production. We, Tengu Canned, have launched a brand centered around "quail eggs" and begun developing and selling new products to support the entire quail egg industry, a specialty of Aichi and Japan.
"Quail eggs" are truly an excellent ingredient. Our mission is to do our utmost to ensure that as many people as possible consume them on a daily basis.
