ABOUT

SHIKISHIMA COFFEE was founded in Shikishimacho, Maebashi City, Gunma Prefecture in 2020. We operate three stores in the city, each with a different concept, based on how we interpret "everyday life" and coffee.

■ FACTORY
This flagship store oversees roasting for all stores. Under the theme of "Enriching Enjoyment in Everyday Life," we operate with an emphasis on whether the coffee experience enriches and enhances daily life. Of course, the most important thing about the coffee you drink every day is that it tastes good, but as a luxury item, it also has to offer discoveries and excitement. With knowledge and experience, life becomes richer every day. That's what we believe.

■ STAND
The store was created in collaboration with the local Shinkin Bank, Shinonome Shinkin Bank, and in cooperation with FM Gunma, Gunma's flagship media, with the mission of helping to foster a lively atmosphere within the urban design of Maebashi City. Becoming a hub for the local community is also an important factor for coffee culture.

■ COUNTER
In 2025, we will further our collaboration with local companies and open a new store in Shin-Maebashi, combining an office and apartment building. We will go beyond the Tone River to further foster local vitality and explore the relationship between coffee and local communities.

We are a coffee roaster that lives in harmony with the local community.
