Major Renovation for Fukaya Terrace: Kewpie and Veggie Friends

Kewpie Corporation, known for its innovative culinary products, has announced a significant renovation of its facility, "Fukaya Terrace: Veggie Friends Farm," located in Fukaya City, Saitama. The facility will be closed from September 14 to November 13, 2026, and will reopen on November 14, 2026, under the new name "Fukaya Terrace: Kewpie and Veggie Friends Salad Palette."

A New Name and Concept

This extensive renovation aims to transform the facility into a vibrant hub celebrating the joy of salads. The new name emphasizes Kewpie's commitment to vegetables and aims to offer an experiential learning environment where children and families can engage with and enjoy various types of salads and dressings. The design concept focuses on a colorful palette where visitors can mix and match different vegetables and dressings, much like artists blending colors on a palette.

Engaging Activities for Families

The reimagined facility promises an interactive experience that stimulates all five senses. The new area is specifically designed for children under elementary school age and features three main themes: "Vegetables," "Salads," and "Dressings." Children will have the chance to create their unique salads, learn about vegetable growth through engaging games, and explore the concept of food education through sensory experiences that include seeing, touching, discovering, creating, and eating.

Unique Salad Experiences

The renovated facility will continue to offer popular activities, including vegetable harvesting, while also introducing workshops focusing on salad and dressing preparation. Adding an extra layer of fun, a smartphone quiz rally will challenge visitors to discover interesting facts about vegetables, reinforcing the idea that engaging with food can be a delightful and educational experience. A dedicated photo spot featuring Kewpie and her veggie friends will also be installed, offering perfect moments for visitors to capture and cherish.

Enhanced Dining and Market Offerings

When it reopens, the facility's restaurant will transform into a space where salads take center stage. Expect a salad bar featuring fresh vegetables harvested from the on-site farm, paired with a diverse selection of Kewpie’s renowned dressings. The market will maintain its reputation for offering fresh produce while also providing a range of Kewpie-branded kitchen goods for home use. To help guests recreate their Salad Palette experiences at home, recipe cards tailored to specific vegetables will also be available.

A Full Day of Fun

Guests can look forward to spending a whole day having fun at Salad Palette, with numerous experiences that engage visitors in vegetable farming, salad-making, and tasting delicious dishes at the restaurant. The facility will cater to both newcomers and returning guests, providing various stay models that sugggest short visits combined with exploration of nearby attractions or longer stays dedicated to enjoying everything Salad Palette has to offer.

Community Focus and Future Goals

Kewpie aims to foster rich communication with children while contributing to community revitalization through the new "Fukaya Terrace: Kewpie and Veggie Friends Salad Palette." The company envisions it as a beloved gathering place for families and fans alike.
