Hojicha Maruyoshi is dedicated to the premium Ōmi tea industry of our local Shiga region, while also supporting high-quality tea leaves and products from across Japan. We work closely with our wholesale partners to ensure both logistical efficiency in distribution and the ideal product match for each partner’s local market needs, including:
-
A complete range of hojicha products from our domestic business available for all bulk orders
-
Private label sales and wholesale options, not limited to our listed retail products
Note: Minimum order quantity (MOQ) is 10kg for bulk tea, or 100 units for individually packed products (typically 40g–50g), available only for partners who have a plan to scale up from there.
Full wholesale overviews and our price list will be shared individually after receiving your inquiry through the contact form. We typically respond within 2–3 days. If you do not hear from us after 3 days, your form submission may not have reached us—please email us directly at hojicha.maruyoshi@gmail.com.
We welcome your interest and inquiries, and look forward to hearing from you!

Do you have other teas available?
Yes, while we specialize in hojicha products made from local Omi tea leaves, we also carry sencha and matcha products sourced both locally from Omi teas, as well as from other domestic Japanese sources. Our top-ranked tea master can also accommodate requests to blend, modify, or find similar alternatives to such tea products. Contact us for more information or inquiries.

Are there minimum wholesale order quantities?
We work with partners who have a clear plan to scale up, starting from 10 kg. For private label packaging, the minimum order quantity for small aluminum inner bags (e.g. 50g size) is 100 units.
Do you offer any discounts?
Depending on the specific tea and quantity, we often accommodate bulk discounts between 10 and 20%. Contact us for specific discount rates.
Are your organic teas certified?
Our locally-sourced leaves for all of our projects which display an "organic" label are USDA Certified. If you require a copy of our certification documents, just ask. Our domestic JONA certification qualifies for compatible international certification under USDA, as well as in EU, Canada, Switzerland, UK, Taiwan, Australia, and New Zealand.
