In 1989, Hissho Sushi CEO Philip Maung arrived in America with just $13 in his pocket and a dream of making a new life. He found his calling in the emerging supermarket sushi industry and spent years learning every facet of the sushi business. In 1998, Philip and his wife Kristina pooled their finances to form Hissho Sushi and founded the company in the family dining room. The company began providing fresh sushi daily to supermarkets and cafes.
Today, Hissho Sushi is a dynamic foodservice and distribution company managing and operating almost 900 sushi bars across the U.S. Our 46,000 square foot, state-of-the-art headquarters is located in beautiful Charlotte, NC.

One of the things we’re most proud of at Hissho Sushi is our Culture. Just take one step inside our headquarters and you’ll see why. Our crazy cubicles range from the simplistic “a few photos here and there,” to complete themes like Philip’s Tiki Bar, Asian kites and lanterns, and even a wild jungle.
Work hard, play hard is one of our core values and we embrace it! When a long week is nearing the end, it’s not uncommon to hear Philip call for drinks at his Tiki Bar for Happy Hour! On nice days, you can find us having ice cream by our Hissho Lake, doing trash pick-up or just out for an afternoon power walk!
Laughter and smiles are also cornerstones of the Hissho Culture. You’ll find that we refer to ourselves as Hisshonians quite often – because we're a family. We welcome everyone with open arms and support individuals so that we can all grow as a team. If you're someone who takes the quality of your work seriously but can still laugh at yourself, this may be the place for you!
