75
Years
We have boldly continued the “challenge to the extreme” of manufacturing and launched various products with new technology and creativity.
From humble beginnings, our equipment now serves the world, enabling our customers to preserve, to innovate, to serve, to heal and to educate in the foodservice, health, hospitality, bio-science, marine and education industries across every continent and in all climates.
Placing reliability, durability and energy efficiency at the centre of our design process, generations of Hoshizaki engineers have helped us build an international reputation for high quality, well-designed products.
“ Together, we continue to explore the realms of possibility.”
Hoshizaki Corporation was founded by Mr. Shigetoshi Sakamoto who demonstrated remarkable foresight when he started our company in Nagoya, Japan in 1947.
Early on, Mr. Shigetoshi Sakamoto recognized the need to invest in research and technology, and in 1959 his son, Mr. Seishi Sakamoto joined the company. Together, the two worked with engineers who shared their vision, and the breakthrough came with the invention of the first ice machine in Japan in 1964.
After the company’s reputation for invention and consistent quality was established in Japan, businesses from all over the world began to demand our products. And gradually, with expansion first to America, Europe then Asia, and most recently Middle East and Africa, Hoshizaki became a truly global company, reaching customers in over 100 countries.

We, Hoshizaki group, aim to be an “Evolving Company” contributing to society as well as customers, meeting the changing needs and demands for diversified “Eating”.
To achieve the above, we develop original products incorporating original technology. And we present innovative proposals for a more comfortable and efficient eating environment and offer responsive, high quality services.
DREAM
Have a dream to begin with.
Results are sure to follow.
A PROFITABLE COMPANY HAS A CULTURE THAT GENERATES PROFIT
Do things differently from others.
See a ‘profitable’ state as the norm.
CHANGE IS THE ONLY WAY TO EVOLVE
Staying ‘as is’ brings you down.
DO NOT USE MONEY TO MAKE MONEY
We make money from what we produce and sell.
BROADEN YOUR HORIZONS
Something that seems wasteful could help you later on.
