In the early 1990s, the Chairman of the time was intrigued by an article in the local press concerning an incident in a primary school: a young boy broke his leg playing football. It turned out that the child was suffering from calcium deficiency. Affected by the story, he offered the school canteen some small Yaki Iriko sardines, dried and pressed by his machines to resemble little biscuits. The children immediately adopted this new presentation and the savoury flavour of the food. The calcium rich product enabled the children to make up their everyday calcium deficiency.
