Aomaru 47 Products Exhibition Set to Highlight Local Delicacies
Tokyo Tatemono Co., Ltd. and Mizuho Financial Group have joined forces to launch the
Aomaru 47 Products Exhibition, a special event dedicated to promoting local specialties from all over Japan. This exciting exhibition will take place at the
Otemachi Tower in Tokyo starting January 2025 and will run regularly thereafter.
From
November 10 to 14, 2025, visitors will have the opportunity to explore an array of delicious products from
Hyogo,
Mie,
Shizuoka, and
Gifu. This initiative is part of a broader commitment to regional revitalization, aiming to celebrate the distinct flavors and crafts that each of these prefectures has to offer.
Event Details
The
Aomaru 47 Products Exhibition is set against the backdrop of the
Otemachi Tower, a complex that features offices, a hotel, and commercial spaces. The tower has been carefully designed to foster engagement among the bustling community of office workers and visitors who frequent the area, being directly connected to
Otemachi Station—one of Tokyo's major transportation hubs.
The exhibition arises from the collaboration between Tokyo Tatemono, which has overseen the development and management of Otemachi Tower since its completion in 2014, and Mizuho FG, a major banking institution with branches in all 47 prefectures across Japan. This unique partnership allows the exhibition to effectively showcase local products while reinforcing the connection between Tokyo and Japan's various regions.
