MISUMI and Oishii
MISUMI and Oishii entered into a business partnership to expand digital manufacturing in agriculture.
MISUMI Group Inc. (MISUMI) announced that it has entered into a business agreement with U.S. vertical farming company Oishii Farm Corporation.
MISUMI said that the agreement reflects the Japanese Monozukuri philosophy of craftsmanship, precision and excellence in production with Oishii’s innovative farming strategies, and exemplifies MISUMI's commitment to the sustainable growth of the manufacturing sector and the broader Monozukuri industry.
By utilizing cutting-edge technologies, including AI and robotics, MISUMI said that Oishii precisely controls key environmental conditions such as temperature, humidity, lighting and airflow, while also enabling automated harvesting.
Through the U.S.-based subsidiary Fictiv, Inc., which MISUMI acquired in June 2025, MISUMI will supply the mechanical components to Oishii's Ametalas Farm in the United States.
MISUMI said that the global food market represents approximately ¥100 trillion (about $630 billion U.S. dollars) and is increasingly exposed to a range of risks, including extreme weather events, geopolitical instability and shortages of land and water resources.
In developed economies, these challenges are further compounded by chronic labor shortages, making improvements in supply stability and productivity an urgent priority. Against this backdrop, MISUMI said that the adoption of advanced technologies in agriculture has begun to accelerate, particularly in developed countries.
