Tokyo Kappabashi Store
Store List
A "theme park" for tools
Since opening in October 2019 on Kappabashi Kitchenware Town in Asakusa, Tokyo, we have not only gained popularity among customers in Japan but have also won the hearts of many foreign customers.
Kappabashi Kitchenware Town is a wholesale district located between Asakusa and Ueno in Taito Ward, Tokyo, and is home to a concentration of shops that mainly deal in various tools such as kitchenware, packaging materials, cooking utensils, food samples, ingredients, and chef's uniforms.
With over 170 specialty stores selling various kitchen supplies and equipment, it's considered the world's largest hub for cooking utensils, where you can find "anything related to cooking and kitchen equipment." Therefore, while many of the shoppers are restaurant owners and chefs, recently there's been an increase in people cooking at home, making it a bustling shopping street every day.
