Yamazaki Baking Co., Ltd.
 PROFILE
Yamazaki Baking doesn't care which side its bread is buttered on, so long as it's Yamazaki's bread that gets buttered. The company is Japan's largest producer of bread and other baked goods. It also produces sandwiches, cakes, puddings, and other convenience foods. Its retail chain operations include Daily Yamazaki (convenience stores) and Y Shop (baked goods). Its Vie de France subsidiary produces frozen dough and bakery products for foodservice customers, and operates retail bakery cafés in Japan and the US. As a prominent food maker, the company has been affected by heightened food contamination fears in Japan and has recalled thousands of food items to restore consumer confidence.
