NEXCO EAST Niigata Regional Head Office (Chuo-ku, Niigata City) and Nexeria East Niigata Branch (Chuo-ku, Niigata City) are aiming to improve the self-sufficiency rate of domestic rice flour and to support reconstruction of the Tohoku region affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake. We will sell noodles using rice flour and a new menu utilizing ingredients of the Tohoku region at SA / PA in the jurisdiction.

The Nexeria East Japan Niigata Branch is registered as a support company for the "R10 Project" from Niigata, which Niigata Prefecture has been disseminated all over the country, as well as an awareness campaign from the area to spread domestic rice flour and improve the food self-sufficiency rate. However, I would like to contribute to the efforts of "Food Action Nippon" and Niigata Prefecture.
