Under the tutelage of Kanji, Tom has been with us at Japan Centre for over 16 years. Having worked across nearly all departments in the business, he now manages food production across all Japan Centre food halls to make sure we have enough sushi and soul food for all of our hungry customers. Tom also creates brand new recipes to bring current tastes and trends from Japan and Asia to the UK, from mapo tofu to fresh salmon poke.

"4th November 2004- that's when I joined the company. Since then, I have watched the company grow and have grown with the company. I have enjoyed the journey, I have met fantastic people- I have been very lucky with this. The good thing about this company is you have the opportunity to learn everything - you are equipped with the knowledge and skills that will prepare you for anything."
