Hatsukokoro Story / Line Up
日本と世界の架け橋へ
株式会社H&Kは2013年の設立以来、日本が世界に誇る伝統技術を生かした製品を世界へ発信することを信念として、魅力あふれる商品の発掘と販路の開拓に努めて参りました。そして2019年、自社のオリジナルブランド”初心（はつこころ）”を生み出しました。
”初心”は日本の諺＜初心忘るべからず＞から来ています。本来の「しょしん」ではなく、柔らかく日本的な「はつこころ」という読み方にしました。自分たちの信念を忘れず一つ一つの製品に向き合い、お客様に新鮮な喜びを感じて頂けるような商品開発を心がけています。
豊かな食生活は生活を彩ります。弊社は初心ブランドの普及を通して料理の楽しみ、食事の楽しみを世界中の皆様にお届けします。
We strive to be the bridge
between Japan and the world
Since its establishment in 2013, H&K Co. Ltd has sought out the best products Japan has to offer and developed sales channels to distribute them all over the world.
We are so proud of the world-class products from Japan, that in 2019, we developed our original brand “Hatsukokoro”. The word Hatsukokoro stems from the Japanese proverb “don’t forget your original intention”. Although the original pronunciation would be “shoshin”, we chose to use the more gentle pronunciation of Hatsukokoro.
We believe a rich diet will colour your life and we hope to bring the joy of cooking and dining to people all around the world through our Hatsukokoro brand of products.
