Mitsui Foods is proud to offer a powerful portfolio of brands that offer our customers real competitive advantage in every segment of the greater food marketplace.
Our Empress brand sets the standard for quality in the national, premium brand category. It is simply the very best collection of the finest imported foods on the market today. And it should be the best because we’ve been refining and perfecting Empress, since its introduction in 1963.
Over the years, Empress brand innovations have led the way in improving the quality, consistency and variety of imported foods available in the marketplace today. Empress pioneered the specialty foods category in North America with products like mandarin oranges, artichoke hearts, tropical fruit salad, smoked oysters, crabmeat and more. Empress was the first to introduce tuna packed in water. First to introduce low-sodium tuna. And first to offer tropical fruit salad and a full line of naturally sweetened fruit products to meet the needs of health conscious consumers.
Today, the Empress brand offers the most regal assortment of the finest fish and seafoods, garden vegetables, orchard fruits and specialty food products from around the world. Through our global sourcing resources, we select only the highest quality ingredients from an elite group of international producers. And our on-site quality assurance experts guarantee the unsurpassed quality and consistency of each and every product that proudly bears the Empress brand name. And that’s made Empress a "demand brand" for foodservice professionals and consumers who demand the very finest. So, if you want to serve the best of the best to your customers, give Empress a test. It’s food fit for royalty.
Our Pacific Premium brand is the pinnacle of purity in the natural foods category. First introduced in California in 1989, Pacific Premium Tuna fast became a "cult brand" among food purists throughout the western United States. Prized for its super premium quality and processed without any of the additives or fillers found in commercial brands, Pacific Premium is perfectly positioned to meet the dietary needs of the growing legions of health conscious consumers throughout North America today.
Pacific Premium offers the choicest selection of totally additive-free Albacore, Yellowfin, Tongol and Skipjack tuna varieties. All packed in pure water with just a dash of salt. We also offer a select assortment of fine fruits, vegetables and more. So, if you want to catch the wave of explosive growth in the natural foods arena, get on board with Pacific Premium. It's purely delicious.
 We were born for Private Brands at Mitsui. It’s how we got our start back in 1953, when we first began producing "private label" tuna products for retail supermarkets.
Today, our Private Brand Programs remain a key mission at Mitsui. We’re proud to count many of the industry’s private brand leaders among our customers: Kroger Supermarkets, Albertsons, Sysco, Aldi, Shaws, Fred Meyer, Wegman, and many more. While their brand imaging, product profiles and distribution demands are all very different, these companies all know that Mitsui has the best resources to consistently deliver the quality, uniformity, dependability and value they need to satisfy their customers and build their brands. If you want to make the most of your private brand program, call the people with the most private brand experience. At Mitsui, private brands are in our DNA.
So, whether you select the very best in our premium Empress brand. Or our pure and additive-free Pacific Premium brand. Or even commission us to create a private brand to your own specifications, you can always count on Mitsui Food brands to satisfy your customers and build your business. Mitsui is your global connection to the world of food. |
