Business matching events for food and general goods have been organized in Tokyo to facilitate connections between producers and major buyers.

In August, the 19th Agri-Food EXPO opened at Tokyo Big Sight, featuring approximately 600 exhibitors showcasing domestic agricultural, forestry, and fishery products. The event aimed to support domestic and international sales channels by inviting professional buyers and collaborating with the Japan External Trade Organization.

Following this, the Tokyo Chamber of Commerce and Industry announced a buyer matching event scheduled for late November 2026 at the same venue. This upcoming event intends to connect manufacturers with approximately 40 major buyers from sectors including supermarkets, hotels, and retail, covering food categories as well as general goods such as apparel and cosmetics.
