Company Overview
KitchHike Inc. is a Japanese company focused on regional revitalization. Initially launched in 2013 as a platform connecting travelers with local home cooks, the company has since shifted its business model. Its primary service is now "保育園留学" (Nursery School Study Abroad), a program that allows families to live in rural Japanese communities for one to two weeks, with children attending local nursery schools while parents can work remotely. This initiative aims to provide children with experiences in nature, offer families new lifestyle options, and contribute to local economies by creating long-term relationships. KitchHike also operates a business studio called "こどもと地域の未来総研" (Child and Community Future Research Institute) and a gift service for local food products. The company has received funding from investors such as ANA HOLDINGS to expand its programs across Japan.
