Keep additive-free Japanese ham alive — rebuilding a broken smokehouse
Conclusion: rebuilding a 50-year butcher's machinery — closed at 352% funded, 3,638 backers (funded, Jul 8 2026).
Why you'll want to back it
A 50-year-old meat processor is rebuilding an ageing smokehouse that keeps breaking down, so it can carry its domestic, additive-free ham and sausage making into the next generation. Against a ¥10M goal (of roughly ¥30M total equipment cost) it closed at ¥35.26M from 3,638 backers (352%). It was their first campaign.
What you get

Editor's note
It was All-in. For food and perishables, the things to check are delivery timing, storage and allergen labelling. A clean case of a “save our local food” story winning empathy. Campaign ended Jul 8, 2026 (final figures).
