  • #20 $20M Superfood Business Far Away From Tokyo

    In general, it is an advantage for the farmers to be close to the metropolitan area, as it is easier to keep freshness and cheaper to transport the vegetables. The Broccoli division of JA Shimabara-Unzen in Nagasaki Prefecture which is almost 6,800 miles away from Tokyo has disproved such a theory. For the past 20 years since 2001, their business has been growing steadily. Their annual sales in 2019 exceeded 9 million dollars and the number of new farmers has increased. The division has also started smart farming. #Nagasaki #Foodie #Toyota #Sushi #SMEs #Japan #Japanese #JapanUnboxed #nihongo #にほんご #learnJapanese #studyJapanese #kanji #madeinjapan #DiscoverJapan #Tokyo #Kyoto #日本語能力試験 #JLPT #日本語勉強 #kanji #Podcast #AdvancedJapanese 逆境をチャンスに変える「産地づくり」の競争戦略 - 日経ビジネス電子版 Special https://special.nikkeibp.co.jp/NBO/businessfarm/innovation/45/ 2021.01.05
