Seven years after Kobe Beef was first exported to Macau, it has expanded to 23 countries and regions due to strong requests from various countries.

In addition, the long-cherished Wagyu Master Meat Center became the authorized export facility for beef to the United States in May Reiwa and the EU in July, and further export of Kobe beef to foreign countries is expected.

Under such circumstances, a system that allows consumers around the world to eat authentic Kobe beef with peace of mind will operate in cooperation with relevant parties.

It is a system that can verify whether the real "Tajima beef" and "Kobe beef" that are registered as regional collective trademarks and GI are definitely distributed and sold using DNA.

The meat pieces of Tajima beef collected from each certified meat center are stored and managed at a facility established in the Wagyu Master Meat Center (Hyogo Food Science Institute, Inc.), and DNA management number is written in Hyogo- produce Tajima Beef Certificate and Kobe Beef Certificate of Authenticity. You can trace even after distribution.

In addition, as an individual confirmation of the living cow at the time of loading to the meat center, in addition to the registration form or registration cirtificate and the individual identification number, we will also perform the verification with the nosecrest.

We will further strengthen our efforts to ensure that there are no mistakes from production to distribution and sales.

In order to deliver the deliciousness of the real Kobe beef to the world, we would like to work together with all parties from production to distribution to further promote it.
