SAGA COLLECTIVE

Beautiful. Delicious. Comfortable. Passing on this abundance to the future

These delicate and beautiful products, woven together by Saga's nature and artisanal skills, are born from a cycle of circulation and succession. The cup of tea and the piece of pottery you choose will increase the sustainability of the region's traditional industries.

Saga Collective was founded with the vision of "protecting the local environment and protecting future industries" to pass on Saga Prefecture's rich nature and diverse manufacturing to the next generation. Eleven companies from different industries, including seaweed, noodles, tea, sake, tableware, and furniture, are collaborating to preserve the techniques and culture that have been passed down through the generations while promoting manufacturing that is kind to the earth, people, and society. A portion of sales is donated to local environmental conservation efforts, resulting in the local consumption of carbon credits. Based on the mission of "From Local to Global," we are spreading the value of Saga to the world.
