With a population of approximately 130 million, excellent public safety, and well-developed business environment, Japan, as one of the most advanced countries in Asia, is an exceptionally attractive market. However, for non-Japanese companies, the Japanese market is a venture into the unknown, and it has unique business customs and distribution channels. To smoothly launch a business in Japan and penetrate into the Japanese market, it is important to craft market entry and expansion strategies based on a clear understanding of the product’s market size, future potential, competitive landscape, differentiation from competitors, and the supply chain model.

Recently, there has been an increase in inquiries for support for foreign companies entering the Japanese food industry. Tanabe Consulting, a trailblazer in strategic consulting in Japan, brings over 65 years of expertise to the table. This expertise is particularly pronounced in the realm of food-related consulting, where Tanabe Consulting has advised over 700 companies in the past decade. Equipped with an in-depth understanding of Japan’s food business landscape, Tanabe Consulting stands ready to offer comprehensive support for ambitions to venture into and grow within the Japanese market.

For those exploring entry into the Japanese market or in search of effective promotional and sales strategies that resonate in Japan, feel free to a visit to Tanabe Consulting’s booth at the exhibition.
