Kita Kitchen is a Hokkaido food-specialty shop operated jointly by Hokkaido Hyakka and the Sapporo department store Marui Imai, describing itself as a 'dosan shokuhin select shop' — a select shop for goods produced within Hokkaido. Its stated concept, per the operator's own materials, is to curate 'foods that we who live in Hokkaido would want to eat every day', positioning the range around everyday regional eating rather than tourist souvenirs, though its Sapporo flagship in particular also draws heavily on visitor traffic. The Aurora Town branch, at Odori Nishi 2-chome in Sapporo's Chuo-ku underground shopping arcade, is the flagship location, operating within the footprint of Marui Imai's main store; Kita Kitchen has since expanded to three further locations — Shin-Sapporo's Sanpia Plaza, Aeon Mall Asahikawa Station, and a New Chitose Airport branch in the domestic terminal, the last positioning it to reach travelers as well as residents. Across its stores, the shop stocks a rotating selection built around Hokkaido's core agricultural and marine strengths: dairy products, seafood, vegetables, breads, confectionery, and other regional pantry staples sourced from producers across the island. As a department-store-operated select shop rather than a single-producer stall, Kita Kitchen functions closer to a curated grocery hall — presenting Hokkaido's food landscape through one retailer's edit rather than any single maker's own range.
