Yuko Watanabe Director International CommunicationYuko Watanabe, Director International Communication, JFWO on business scenario in japan

 “Japanese domestic market, particularly in the department store and textile industries, is facing challenges due to the pandemic and rising costs. Although, online shopping is growing but offline stores are struggling. The weak yen has made exporting raw materials to China and other countries less profitable, while importing goods has become expensive. The tourism industry has also been affected, with only wealthy tourists able to travel to Japan, international tourism can help the domestic market to some extent, but it is not enough to fully recover”.
