2023 WUSATA Pavilion at FoodEx Trade Show

~ March 7-10, 2023 ~

FOODEX JAPAN has been a highly successful trade event since its debut in 1976, serving not only Japan's $789 billion food market, but many lucrative Asian markets, including Korea, Taiwan, China, Thailand, and Hong Kong.

Japan presents one of the best opportunities in the world for U.S. food exporters and FOODEX is a proven entry-point.

Access a large market for U.S exporters: the Japanese GDP of $5.08 trillion makes this the world’s third largest economy, and a stable trading partner for the U.S.

Take advantage of ideal timing, as under the U.S. – Japan Free Trade Agreement nearly 90 percent of U.S. food and agricultural imports into Japan are either duty free or receive preferential tariff access.
