| Summary: | Japan has one of the largest poultry industries in the world. To meet the high demands for eggs, many types of mass production methods have been developed. In contrast, a number of high-quality brands of eggs have been launched. Among them, the Oenosato Natural Farm (managed by Hiyoko Company) located in Yazu Town, Tottori Prefecture is currently the most successful company in Japan; supplying a high volume of highly priced, high-quality eggs, named Tenbiran. It should be noted that this firm is successful not only in selling eggs, but also in providing various foods made from eggs, as well as restraint services and agricultural experience tours—although Yazu Town is located far from Tokyo and other big markets. Why is the firm successful? To answer the question, this paper analyzes the firm’s business model. |
