Special Support from the Japanese Government

The show is strongly supported by the Japanese Government, Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF), as an ideal platform to purchase Japan's food. Also, the expert of exporting Japanese products to overseas, Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) will be the co-organiser of the show to support on-site business between overseas visitors and Japanese exhibitors.

We expect this show to achieve JPY 1 trillion in exports of agricultural, forestry and fishery products by 2019, set by MAFF. Tad Ishizumi, President of Reed Exhibitions Japan Ltd. says "when I heard the goal, I decided to make some contributions to support the government. We decided to launch "JAPAN'S FOOD" EXPORT FAIR as I think it could be the best way to work out. In 5 years, we are planning to gather 2,500 exhibitors and 30,000 buyers, and make the exhibition as the Asia's largest food export fair."
