Digital Print Manager

Kiyoko Fermentation Co.

From concept to market, I started this company with all of my passion for fermented foods. After an extremely long trial with Alberta Health Services, I was finally able to share this amazing Japanese superfood (natto) with all that would try it. After success over multiple years, to selling the business to a local entrepreneur. I was honoured to represent 4 generations of my extended family in making this superfood.
