Japan – June 2023
Trade Mission
June 5-9, 2023

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS) is accepting applications from exporters of U.S. farm and food products for a two-city trade mission to Japan, June 5-8. The trade mission offers U.S. agribusinesses the potential to increase or expand their sales to Japan, one of the United States’ top five agricultural export markets.

Japan is a high-value market that imports more consumer-oriented products than any other market in Asia and will pay a premium for high-quality products. U.S. exports of agricultural products to Japan exceeded $14.6 billion in 2022.

Trade mission participants will travel to Tokyo and Osaka, connecting with potential customers and learning first-hand from government and industry leaders about local market conditions. FAS staff in Japan will arrange meetings between U.S. businesses and potential buyers in the country. Participants will also visit local retail stores and food manufacturers to round out the program.
