We worked once again this year at the most important food fair in Japan, FOODEX Tokyo.
This year we have had the opportunity to collaborate with the Interprofesional of the beef of Spain
PROVACUNO
and with the Interprofessional Association of the Spanish Sheep and Goat Meat Industry
INTEROVIC
in the design and construction of their stands.
We have also had the opportunity to visit and share experiences with Spanish food companies that have participated in the fair with the aim of continuing to export high quality Spanish products to Japan.
Japan is a priority market for Spanish food and beverage exports, which have maintained a favorable evolution thanks to the Spain-Japan Free Trade Agreement that came into force on February 1, 2019. Between January and November 2023, the volume of food and beverage exports to Japan reached 1,062 million euros, making it the ninth country in the ranking by export destinations and the fourth outside the European Union.
We also celebrated this week that the value of Spanish bottled wine broke a record in Japan in 2023. According to data from the Spanish Wine Market Observatory (OEMV), Japan increased the value of its wine imports by 2% in 2023, to 250.325 billion yen, an all-time record.
We continue working to cross borders!
