KITTE Osaka will grand open on July 31, 2024!
What is KITTE Osaka?
The large complex "JP Tower Osaka", directly connected to JR Osaka Station, was completed in March of this year!
Within JP Tower Osaka, the basement level to the sixth floor is occupied by KITTE Osaka, which houses a variety of restaurants, retail stores, and service-related stores.
Based on the concept of "UNKNOWN," we aim to be a place where you can discover and rediscover the good things about Japan by gathering attractive people, things, and experiences from all over Japan that you have not yet experienced or known about. In addition to "Hiroshima IPPIN," the second floor of KITTE Osaka is lined with antenna shops from all over Japan!
Hiroshima Select Shop "Hiroshima IPPIN"
Hiroshima IPPIN has two concepts: it is a place that gathers exceptional "masterpieces" from Hiroshima, and it is a place where you can find that "one item" just for you. Based on this concept, we have selected carefully selected products ranging from food and daily necessities made using the prefecture's specialties to traditional crafts and other high-quality and sophisticated items from Hiroshima.
Once you reach the second floor pedestrian deck from the station building, you will find antenna shops from all over Japan. Hiroshima IPPIN has an official torii gate from Itsukushima Shrine in the center, which sounds auspicious!
The interior colors are inspired by Hiroshima cityscape, with red representing the mountains of growth and the lively city, and river blue representing the rivers and sea used throughout. This is also the concept color of the HIROSHIMA ORIZURU TOWER.
The products selected by searching all over Hiroshima range from classics to rare items!
We have our eye on Kara Sake Brewery, which has been brewing sake for about 170 years since its founding in Akitsu Town, Higashihiroshima City, the birthplace of ginjo sake, and purchase products such as their [Pasteurized] 9th Generation Otafuku Junmai Daiginjo, which is made using the soft water brewing method of Miura Senzaburo, who is considered the father of ginjo sake.
The extensive lineup includes doburoku, a rare variety of sake in Hiroshima that is hard to find anywhere else!
Of course! We also stock Hiroshima staples such as momiji manju, oysters, lemon products, and okonomiyaki. We have a selection that can be enjoyed by both those who have been to Hiroshima and those who have not!
Many original products will be on sale!
As an original product, we are selling an original blended herbal tea made from Hamagou, which grows wild on the beaches of Miyajima and is usually cut down and discarded in the summer!
We plan to continue selling a number of original products created in collaboration with local Hiroshima companies, with a focus on the theme of "recycling."
What is the HIROSHIMA ORIZURU TOWER SOUVENIR SELECT "Hito to Ki" witch produces "Hiroshima IPPIN,"?
The local products store, which opened at the same time as the HIROSHIMA ORIZURU TOWER in 2016, is located on the first floor of the HIROSHIMA ORIZURU TOWER along Train Street and is a store that stocks over 1,000 products made in Hiroshima Prefecture. There are many famous products that represent the prefecture and products that locals will enjoy.
It has grown into a place where Hiroshima's finest products are gathered, and has taken over the role of the former "Industrial Promotion Hall" (the predecessor building of the Atomic Bomb Dome), operating with a desire to give back to our hometown of Hiroshima. Now, as a new challenge, we have decided to open our second flagship store in Osaka.
At "Hiroshima IPPIN," we continue to carry on the spirit of the HIROSHIMA ORIZURU TOWER Product Hall "SOUVENIR SELECT Hito to Ki" and offer a selection of famous products that convey the charm of Hiroshima, always exploring, producing and developing new products, and continuing to evolve.

HIROSHIMA ORIZURU TOWER is a tourist facility that opened in 2016 next to the Atomic Bomb Dome, a world heritage site, offering a space you've never seen or felt before. The breeze blows through the rooftop observation deck, offering views of the Peace Memorial Park, the Atomic Bomb Dome, and on clear days, Mount Misen on Miyajima. At ORIZURU SQUARE on the 12th floor, you can fold a crane using special origami paper and throw it into the 50m-high glass-walled ORIZURU WALL. Also on the first floor, there is a product hall selling locally loved products and a cafe where you can taste ingredients from Hiroshima.
