Morozoff Limited is a Japan-based company engaged primarily in the manufacture and sale of western confectionery products and the operation of cafes and restaurants. Founded in 1931 and headquartered in Kobe, Japan, the company offers a diverse range of confectionery including chocolates, cookies, cream cheesecakes, custard puddings, baked cakes, desserts, and sweets samplers. Morozoff also operates cafes and restaurants providing food services such as cakes, coffee, and pasta through directly managed and licensed stores nationwide. The company functions within two main business segments: Western Confectionery Manufacturing and Sales, which focuses on dry and fresh confectioneries, and the Cafe and Restaurant segment.

Morozoff continues to emphasize expansion and strengthening of its retail and cafe presence in Japan, supported by steady sales growth in its primary confectionery business segment. The company is listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange under ticker 2217.T and maintains over 500 employees, serving primarily the Japanese market with an established nationwide retail network. This comprehensive business model positions Morozoff as a leading luxury confectionery maker with an integrated approach to product manufacturing and food service operations in Japan.
