Nana Farm Suma operates as a direct-from-farm market that connects contracted farmers and local fishing ports directly with consumers, eliminating middlemen. The facility offers fresh vegetables, fruits, and seafood sourced specifically from Hyogo Prefecture producers, including specialty varieties not typically available at standard supermarkets. Products are delivered daily from Tarumi and Suma fishing ports, and dedicated buyers select the freshest catches. The market also features exclusive items like Awaji Island onions, Tamba Koshihikari rice, and Murotsu oysters, along with the "Erauma" brand products available only at this location.
The facility offers multiple dining experiences. The second-floor seafood restaurant provides Japanese seafood cuisine and year-round seafood barbecue with views of the Akashi Strait, featuring A5-ranked Kobe beef and high-quality domestic Wagyu at reasonable prices. Additional options include Pan de Nana bakery for freshly baked breads, a café and retail shop serving sake from Hyogo's five provinces and Kobe wine, and a ramen shop. The market also sells handmade side dishes and bento boxes that can be enjoyed on the large lawn area in front of the shop or in designated rest spaces.
By car from Osaka or Sannomiya, take the Hanshin Expressway Route 3 Kobe Line and exit at Wakamiya Interchange, which is approximately 3 minutes from the facility. From Himeji or Akashi, take the Second Shinmei Road and exit at Suma Interchange for a 10-minute drive. Private parking is available on-site. For public transport, the nearest station is JR Kobe Line Sumakaihinkoen Station, which requires approximately 13 minutes walking distance to reach the market. The facility is located at 4 Chome-1-1 Sotohamacho, Suma Ward, Kobe.
Top specialty items include Awaji Island onions, known for their exceptional sweetness after being slowly dried in natural wind, and Koshihikari rice from Tamba sourced directly from producers. The seafood section features nori seaweed from Suma waters, which ranks among Japan's second-largest seaweed production region, plus conger eel from Awaji Island and highly sought-after Murotsu oysters from Tatsuno City. The market occasionally hosts tuna cutting shows where freshly cut portions are available at special prices. Look for the exclusive "Erauma" brand products, including sake, coffee, and eggs, available only at Nana Farm Suma.
The facility is highly family-friendly with spacious accommodations for strollers and wheelchairs throughout the restaurant areas. The second-floor seafood restaurant uses smokeless grills and maintains frequent ventilation for comfort. A large lawn area in front of the shop provides outdoor space where families can enjoy purchased food and relax. The market regularly hosts irregular events such as public radio recordings and photo opportunities with police cars that appeal to children. Free admission to the market itself makes it accessible for families, with costs limited to individual purchases and dining expenses.

After shopping, I enjoyed the "Pan de Nana Set" in the cafe.
Thank you for the meal.
It's close to Suma Sea World, so I stopped by on my way home and was excited to shop because I found products I don't usually see at supermarkets. The vegetables were cheap, and the atmosphere of the store and the staff was very nice. Next time, I'd like to go to the seafood restaurant on the second floor and enjoy a leisurely meal while looking out at the ocean at Suma.
The vegetables and bento boxes are so delicious!
I'm not a big fan of prepared dishes or bento boxes, but everything in the bento boxes here is delicious!
There are several main dishes, and my favorites are the mackerel and the chicken katsuta-age?
Apart from the main dishes, the side dishes like tamagoyaki (rolled omelet) and konbu tsukudani (dried kelp) and the rice are all really delicious. They have a microwave, so I heat them up on the spot and eat them straight in the car!
The vegetables are fresh and varied, and they last much longer than those bought at the supermarket. I'm so grateful to the farmers for selling such delicious food at such low prices. When I casually mentioned to them that I was grateful to the farmers, a nearby employee politely thanked me, and I was so happy to be able to communicate with them.
