FamilyMart Wakayama Prefecture food collaborations

Overview

FamilyMart is launching a series of food products and promotions centered on ingredients from Wakayama Prefecture. The initiative includes a limited-edition mandarin ice bar, part of the ‘Famimaru’ private brand, which utilizes juice from fruit that is high quality but rejected by traditional markets due to cosmetic imperfections.

In addition to the ice bar, the collaboration features a ‘Wakayama Fair’ in the Kansai region with products such as plum and bonito rice balls, matcha donuts, and Wakayama-style Chinese soba supervised by the restaurant Ide Shoten. These efforts are designed to support sustainable fruit production and regional revitalization.
