In the first seven months of this year, Japan’s exports of agricultural products and food to Hong Kong increased by 17% year-on-year to 112.6 billion yen. Far more than mainland China (76 billion yen) and the United States (65 billion yen).
The export volume of pearls favored by the wealthy in Hong Kong and the sea cucumbers used for high-end Chinese cuisine are huge. With the relaxation of import restrictions on vegetables and fruits produced in four Japanese counties in July, the scope of Japanese exports continues to increase.
