We are very happy to announce that MLT Japan Inc. was formed and the company is expected to start its operation sometime early August 1999. The reason of this new setup in Japan by MLT International, Inc. is to strengthen our business activities in our prime market, Japan. Although a theme of "organic" in the food industry in Japan may not necessarily be as dominant as we experience here in U.S. today, but we feel that it is a matter of time. The issue of "genuine certified organic food", we believe, becomes a key issue in Japan since consumer's awareness and interest on "healthiness, freshness and safety on food" is same anywhere. To support our sales promotion program, MLT Japan, Inc. is responsible to monitor and manage its "Online Shopping" service over this web site that is now under construction. The MLT's net shop is expected to open sometime in coming August subject to deliveries available in Japan only.

3 Rosie, Rocky, Rocky Jr., all available at Kinokuniya(a report from Tokyo)

A demo sales of Petaluma's organic products by Kakiuchi was made during the weekend of July 17-18 at the most reputable quality supermart in uptown, the area called Todoroki in Setagaya, a western part of Tokyo. The Petaluma corner(shown in the center photo) has a large chilled freezer where customers can check what are available inside packages. There was another freezer(not shown) having deep-frozen chickens from Petaluma including a whole chicken of Rosie. A variety of packages as minced, boneless leg, leg with bones, braised with lemon flavor etc. was available to customers visiting the store. There was a sample tasting experience which has a barbecue chicken at the corner. The tasty and healthy organic chickens attracted many visiting customers who may possibly repeat its purchase if they once "tasted" Petaluma at home. The price tags are also very inviting as they are competitive to the local free-range but non-organic chickens which are priced rather higher than Petaluma. During the two days, a handsome sales, according to Kinokuniya, was made.
