Nekkodo Founder
Atsuo Shibata Atsuko Shibata
She has worked as a nurse for 24 years. 2014, she was diagnosed with parotid cancer (adenoid cystic carcinoma) and experienced surgery and chemoradiotherapy. Through these experiences, she realized the barrier of eating. She also learned that interaction with others in the same situation can be a source of support for living. She decided to start her own business to support the idea that "to live is to eat, and to eat is to live. I would like to update society with the values I have realized through my cancer experience.
