JETRO @ Natural Products Expo West 2008 | Print |

- Make New Connections and Discover New Japanese Products -

JETRO will participate in the Natural Products Expo West this year for the first time. With the value placed on raw, wholesome ingredients and natural flavors, Japanese cuisine is a natural fit for the expo and JETRO is proud to represent it. We will host four Japanese companies who have not yet begun exporting to the U.S., as well as some companies already distributing their products in the Southern California market.

Japanese companies are:

  • Rice Island Inc: rice mix, dry beans, etc.
  • Muso Co. LTD: instant miso soup, brown rice crackers
  • Hishiwaen: various Japanese teas
  • Japan Organic and Natural Food Association

In addition to hosting these companies and their delicious products, we will be giving away materials and educating attendees about JETRO's services. Come by to learn about Japanese food and how we can help your business.

Along with the Natural Products Expo West, JETRO will also be sponsoring the Japanese Food & Sake Festival, which is designed to facilitate business matching between Japanese food and sake sellers with U.S. and international buyers.
