Meet Fuka Shigenaga

Sales Representative at ANZCO Foods Japan

Fuka is a Sales Representative and Processed Product Sales Manager at ANZCO Foods Japan. She's been with ANZCO Foods for eight years, and coordinates the sales of the retail lamb division. In her photo (left) she's holding products from the Genghis Khan range, which she manages. Since working for ANZCO, she's been surprised at how delicious New Zealand beef and lamb is! Before joining us, she's worked for a wine wholesaler, and as a sales representative for copy machines.

Outside of work she enjoys watching movies, and unwinds by taking a nice relaxing bath. She has a four year-old son, who she recently took skating for the first time - and reports that they both enjoyed it a lot!
