Nippan Daido, established in 1978, was Houston’s first major Japanese grocery store, offering a wide range of authentic Japanese products, including sushi-grade fish, bento boxes, and imported snacks. Known for its mom-and-pop charm and exceptional customer service, it became a beloved destination for both the Japanese community and those interested in Japanese culture. However, in September 2019, the store closed. In December 2019, former managers Toyo Hagiwara and Naota Noguchi reopened the store under new ownership, naming it Daido Market. The market continues to offer a variety of Japanese groceries, including fresh produce, sushi-grade fish, imported beverages, snacks, and deli items like rice balls and bento boxes. With a commitment to quality and authenticity, Daido Market has become a cherished spot for those seeking genuine Japanese products in Houston .
