Japan has proven to be an appealing and profitable market for U.S. companies for many years. The USDA Agricultural Trade Office in Osaka reports that Japan is the fourth largest market for U.S. exporters of all food and agricultural products.
Under the U.S. – Japan Free Trade Agreement nearly 90% of U.S. food and agricultural imports into Japan are either duty free or receive preferential tariff access.
U.S. Food & Agricultural Product Imports to Japan, By the Numbers
U.S. Consumer-Oriented Foods – US$6.3 billion (2020)
U.S. Processed Foods – US$2.5 billion (2020)
By the year 2025, Euromonitor projects that retail sales in the packaged food market in Japan will reach US$204.5 billion, a growth of 3.6%, or US$7 billion.
