In recent years, more and more food-related companies are seeking to expand their sales channels overseas due to globalization and the shrinking domestic market in Japan.
Unfortunately, penetrating overseas markets can prove to be difficult for small and medium enterprises. For these companies, barriers can include limited assets, human resources, information, and so on.
To tackle these challenges, small and medium companies have united together with The Fukuoka City Government and established the FFBA to help Kyushu businesses not only penetrate the international market, but also to collaborate and develop sales channels together as a team.
