The Western U.S. Agricultural Trade Association (WUSATA®), and the 13 Western State Departments of Agriculture, announce participation and registration in the following activity, which is brought to you by the USDA’s Foreign Agricultural Service:
Outbound Trade Mission to Nagoya and Tokyo, Japan: June 26-30, 2017
This activity is timed to coincide with the Agricultural Trade Office’s Product Showcase on June 29th
This is a great opportunity for new to market companies to explore the Japan market, and for companies already exporting to Japan, to further expand their reach. This outbound trade mission will include opportunities for companies to meet with potential buyers in the tabletop show format of the Agricultural Trade Office’s Product Showcase and in individual meetings arranged by WUSATA. This trade mission will also provide the opportunity for companies to learn more about the market opportunities and expectations with a market briefing and tours of a food processor and lab.
This key market with sophisticated and affluent consumers provides a great opportunity for US food exporters. Japan is the largest net importer of food products in the world. With this need for imported food and demand for US consumer food products, this market continues to offer great opportunities for US exporters.
