Global entrepreneurial ingenuity continues to amaze. In the never ending quest to search out market needs we keep coming up with new and varied innovations to meet those needs.

A Yakibox is a complete set, in a box, for cooking one of various Japanese dishes.

Yakiboxes are currently available for two dishes: yakiniku and okonomiyaki. The former is a selection of meat and vegetables, thinly sliced and cooked quickly on a stone hotplate, then dipped in sauces and eaten in small mouthfuls. And okonomiyaki is a cross between an omelette and a pancake.

The Yakiboxes offer consumers an easy way to become acquainted with types of Japanese cuisine that have yet to become as ubiquitous as sushi. Each box includes a gas stove, kitchenware, and everything else needed to prepare an entire meal. The only thing that needs to be added is fresh ingredients.
