Tysons & Company Inc. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Shinpei Terada) will open "breadworks," a bakery currently operating in Tennoz, Tokyo, and Omotesando, in Shogoin, Kyoto, on Thursday, April 9, 2026.
Established in 2010 with the concept of "a wonderful daily life with bread," breadworks offers a diverse lineup of breads, all handmade from flour, including baguettes made with homemade yeast, plain bread with a prominent wheat aroma, and seasonal Danish pastries. Embracing the historic and tranquil streets of Shogoin, Kyoto, breadworks aims to propose a rich lifestyle through bread and deliver special moments to its visitors.
Nihei Kitayama, the head baker of breadworks Shogoin, has honed his skills and sensibility at "breadworks Tennoz" and "No.4" in Kojimachi, Tokyo. In addition to products using the "Yudane method," a hallmark of No.4 that maximizes the sweetness and moisture of ingredients, Kitayama has also developed numerous original products specifically for Shogoin. With the motto of "creating high-quality bread that enriches daily life," which breadworks values, each item is carefully baked.
Featured Menu
As Kyoto-exclusive products, the "α Baguette," which blends rare Hokkaido wheat "Kitano Kaori" with flavorful stone-ground flour, and the "No.4 French Toast," based on a popular No.4 recipe but made in an easy-to-eat size, will be available. Furthermore, the lineup includes approximately 50 varieties, such as the "Yudane Pain de Mie," characterized by its maximum sweetness from Hokkaido wheat and a chewy, moist texture, and the "Brooklyn Donut," an overwhelmingly popular item at breadworks.
