A Glimpse into COMPHO's Philosophy
COMPHO was born from the rich history of Shimada House, established in 1952 as a rice shop. Recognizing the cultural significance of rice in Japanese cuisine, the company sought to innovate beyond traditional grains. They shifted focus to gluten-free rice noodles that cater to the growing demand for dietary alternatives, seamlessly blending Vietnamese Pho with Japanese flavors since launching their first dedicated restaurant in 2001.
With years of dedicated research and collaboration with local farmers, COMPHO has perfected its original rice noodles made from 'Asia no Kaori', cultivated in Joetsu, Niigata. Their commitment to introducing safe, delicious Pho has continued to expand its reach not just to restaurants but also to care facilities and hotels, making Pho more accessible across the country.
