Marukiyo Seika
Sharing Okinawa’s Sweet Legacy.
With over 60 years of history, Marukiyo Seika crafts confections that celebrate Okinawa’s rich flavours—especially its beloved purple sweet potatoes. Rooted in gratitude and tradition, the company continues to bring local joy to global tables.
A History Built on Community
Founded in 1964 in Naha City and now based in Urasoe, Marukiyo Seika has been shaped by the support of its community and customers for over six decades. Their journey reflects a deep appreciation for Okinawa’s heritage, with each confection created as a heartfelt expression of local culture.
A Taste of Nostalgia in Every Bite
One of Marukiyo Seika’s most loved treats is the Beni Imo Moist Manju—a soft, chewy bun filled with delicately sweet red yam paste made from Kume Island-grown purple sweet potatoes. Its gentle, nostalgic flavour is wrapped in a renewed package featuring vivid bingata patterns, perfect for gifts and seasonal celebrations.
“We hope to deliver the charm of Okinawa to the world—one sweet at a time.” — Mr. Kawamitsu (川満様), Representative (担当)
