This esteemed group of industry leaders shares insights into the Japanese market for blueberries, and what Japanese consumers are looking for in a blueberry product. We also explore what exporters can expect and look for in partnering with Japanese distributors, and where producers can go to start developing connections and pathways into the Japanese blueberry market.
“You'll notice almost everything food related here has a very high attention to detail. …So with that, they expect very high-quality produce and blueberries, especially when you talk to buyers over here. They want to know variety. They want to know size. They want to know brix levels, pH, different things like that. So if you can really play up to that part and that strength of your crop and your processing methods, there's ways to have success here.” - Josh Scheel
