Ogawa Group's Kashima Stadium Booth Opening

Background of the Booth Opening

"Food" and "sports" are inseparably connected. For athletes to perform at their best, proper nutrition, including high-quality protein, is essential. Since its founding 86 years ago, the Ogawa Group, comprising companies such as Ogawa Chikusan Shokuhin Co., Ltd. and Ogawa Food & Service Co., Ltd., has supported healthy diets by providing safe and high-quality meat.

Sharing the philosophy of "aiming for regional revitalization together," the Ogawa Group became a member of the Kashima Antlers Business Club in 2023, supporting the team's activities. As part of this initiative, they have now opened a booth in the food court outside Kashima Soccer Stadium on home game days. Through sales at the stadium, they hope fans and families attending the matches can enjoy the Ogawa Group's high-quality products, thereby enhancing their presence as a company aiming for regional revitalization.

Products for Sale

At this booth, we are offering our signature item, the "Shirahime Pork Loin Cutlet Sandwich" (¥1,000), made with the Ogawa Group's branded pork, "Shirahime Pork."

"Shirahime Pork" is a premium brand selected from pigs raised in the warm climate of the Boso region in Chiba Prefecture. Skilled artisans meticulously choose only the rare female pigs from the "Takumi Pork" brand, based on factors like meat firmness, color, and fat quality. This pork is known for its refined taste and the sweetness of its delicious fat. The "Shirahime Pork Loin Cutlet Sandwich" generously uses this pork, allowing you to fully enjoy its firm texture and juicy flavor.

Additionally, we are selling the popular "Butcher's Croquette" (¥300) from our original store, Ogawa Chikusan Sohonten, located in Futaba, Shinagawa Ward.

When you visit Kashima Soccer Stadium for a Kashima Antlers home game, please try our "Shirahime Pork Loin Cutlet Sandwich" and "Butcher's Croquette."
