Tentang bahan ini
A small red bean central to Japanese wagashi (mochi, dorayaki, anko paste) and increasingly used in cosmetic ingredients for its saponin-rich seed coat. Hokkaido produces ~75% of Japan's azuki by volume; the Tokachi region's 'Erimo' cultivar is the most-consumed variety in industrial wagashi production. Cosmetic-grade azuki seed extract appears in cleansing and exfoliating formulations on the back of saponin and polyphenol content.

Hokuren Federation of Agricultural Cooperatives
ホクレン農業協同組合連合会
Hokkaido's federation of agricultural cooperatives, founded 1919. Aggregates supply for over 90% of Hokkaido's agricultural and dairy production: azuki beans, hokkaido scallops, dairy, beet sugar, soy and grain products, and increasingly potato- and beet-derived functional ingredient feedstock. The export division manages overseas sourcing relationships for fresh, frozen, and processed Hokkaido-origin agri-products. The aggregation tier means many overseas buyers reach individual Hokkaido producers via Hokuren first.
