Welcome to
Japanese Food and Beverage Days
28 Nov. 2022 - 24 March. 2023
Japanese Food and Beverage Days is an online matching event for European buyers interested in Japanese food and beverages starting on Monday, November 28. The platform has been extended until 24 March 2023.
This is the third time that this event will be held since its launch in March 2021, when face-to-face meetings were difficult to organise. We are pleased to continue offering online meeting opportunities for buyers and suppliers than may replace at least some travelling. For the first time, we offer matchmaking over a long-term period, allowing buyers to contact Japanese companies at their convenience.
We provide a convenient online platform with a clear and searchable list of Japanese Food and Beverage Suppliers and European importers and buyers. (buyer's and importer's profiles can be anonymised on request)
The platform includes automated scheduling, an integrated messaging and video call meeting function, dedicated support for buyers by a bilingual team and personal interpreters for buyers on request.
You can see participating suppliers here and browse products here. Registration is required to see personal information and to benefit from messaging and online meeting functions. Please register here. After your registration is submitted, our team will check the contents of your profile and get in touch with potential buyers to connect with suitable suppliers on the platform and bring in additional ones through our extensive network of local Japanese partner organisations.
