International media Salaam Groovy Japan introduced TOMO's Japanese halal-certified confectionery

Salaam Groovy Japan: the media that connects Japan to Muslim and ASEAN markets

Japan's internationalization has allowed people of different cultures and religions to live in harmony in the country.

Among them, the Muslim community is estimated to about 230,000 people in Japan, and this number is expected to increase with tourism and business travel.

With this context, Salaam Groovy Japan, a media organization, aims to leverage these exchanges by connecting Japanese and Muslim businesses.

To this end, Salam Groovy Japan honored us with the presentation of TOMO's natural and halal certified Japanese confectionery.

The Japanese manufacturer of Chocolats Café Genshin and Bouchées de Genshin, Watato Co Ltd, is Halal certified and has therefore allowed this added value on TOMO sweets.

These Japanese sweets can be enjoyed safely by the Muslims. We would be so happy if the Muslim community could taste and experience the beauty of Japanese cuisine through the bridge created by TOMO.
