N.Y. NOJO is a humble, family-owned Japanese food delivery service that began in 2010. Like a Japanese specialty grocery store, but with more care, better foods and less hassle. Being that Japanese people have the world’s highest life expectancy and that Japan has the lowest obesity rate in the developed world, those at N.Y. NOJO want to share the “Japanese way of eating” with their friends, neighbors and community.
N.Y. NOJO staff members spend their time researching and carefully selecting their suppliers and foods to add to their assortment. They want to make sure that anything they bring to you is fresh, non-GMO and beneficial to your health.
“I have come across a few Japanese food delivery services, but nothing like N.Y. NOJO,” says one local customer. “Because at N.Y. NOJO, they bring to you carefully selected Japanese groceries that are either organic and/or non-GMO and beneficial to your health while all being ever-so delicious.”
N.Y. NOJO also provides same-day delivery for vegetables, fish and bread. Meaning, staff members pick up the vegetables from the farm, the fish from the fish market, the bread from their baker/pastry chef, and the same day, it is delivered to your door. So, they are not kidding when they say fresh!
Japanese cuisine has been around for a long time in the U.S., but only sushi, ramen and deep-fried foods, like tonkatsu and tempura, are the dishes commonly known. However, you can’t even begin to imagine the repertoire of dishes that Japanese people eat on a daily basis that are delicious and healthy! By shopping at N.Y. NOJO, you will learn so much about the Japanese food culture and will be introduced to foods that you wouldn’t be able to find elsewhere. Also, the staff are well educated about the Japanese food culture, has extensive experience preparing Japanese dishes, and is more than happy to provide recipes and give you advice on how to prepare delicious meals, if you are ever in need of help.
You will be eating toward a healthier, better life, and you will be introduced to a new food culture that you can share with your friends and family!
Just like you, those at N.Y. NOJO care about where their food comes from and how it’s made; they can tell you where each item sold in their store came from and how it was made. Delivering you the most safe and fresh groceries is just one of N.Y. NOJO’s missions.
