Benkyodo Traditional hand-made Japanese manju, mochi, and more! When the family was interned during World War II, Benkyodo Company was forced to close temporarily.

In 1906, Suyeichi Okamura opened Benkyodo Company - one of the original businesses in Japantown - on San Francisco's Geary Boulevard. After the war ended, the shop reopened, and in 1951 Suyeichi's son, Hirofumi, took over. In 1959, the shop moved to its present-day location at Sutter and Buchanan Street. In 1990, Hirofumi passed the shop to his sons, Ricky and Bobby. Continuing a family legacy, th

e two brothers still own and operate the business, bringing the sweet confections - and smiles - to customers daily.
