What Umios does

Formerly Maruha Nichiro; a global seafood and fisheries company selling frozen/processed marine foods and canned goods.

Spans the seafood chain: it catches and farms fish, trades imported and domestic seafood, and processes it into frozen and canned foods for supermarkets and restaurants. Trading and processed foods make up most of the business, with fishing and aquaculture the smaller, more volatile part.

In one line: Japan's answer to a diversified US seafood company.
