Established in 2021, Japan Scallop Export Promotion Association (“J-HOTATE Association”) invites people in Japan and around the world to enjoy the high quality, and healthy deliciousness of sustainably cultivated HOTATE Japanese scallops.
HOTATE scallops from Japan (We Say HOTATE ("Hoh-Tah-Teh") ! ) are prized for their taste, size and quality. Whether savored raw in sushi or sashimi or cooked in a variety of cuisine, their succulent sweetness is irresistible. Home to one of the world’s major fishing industries, Japan offers year-round enjoyment of delicious scallops, all cultivated and harvested using environmentally friendly methods and delivered fresh thanks to advanced processing technology. The secret of HOTATE’s umami-rich and nutritious goodness is the clean and nutrient-rich ocean currents where Japan’s major production regions of Hokkaido, Aomori, Iwate, and Miyagi harvest scallops. For scallops of superior quality sustainably cultivated, bursting with healthy nutrition, and above all, the enjoyment of delicious freshness in every bite, the name is HOTATE.
