The popularity of Japanese-origin ice cream is on the rise in Asia. The unique flavors developed in Japan, such as mochi-like textures, have captured the hearts of local consumers. The Japanese food boom acts as a tailwind, with traditional Japanese flavors like matcha and azuki gaining support. Southeast Asia, in particular, with its warm climate throughout the year, maintains a steady demand for ice cream. Manufacturers are not only expanding local production but also focusing on increasing exports. Since 2021, Imuraya Group has been locally producing and selling its flagship ice cream, "Azuki Bar," in Malaysia. Looking ahead, the company also considers exporting Azuki Bars from Malaysia to neighboring countries with large Muslim populations, such as Indonesia. #icecream #japan #trend #asia 日本発アイス、アジアで熱　食感や風味で心つかむ：日本経済新聞 https://lnkd.in/g2z6piAs

Suntory Holdings' President, Takashi Shinagawa, shared insights into the company's future overseas strategy during an interview with the Nikkei. He expressed plans to establish India as a hub for production, enabling the export of products to other countries and regions. He is considering partnerships with local alcoholic beverage manufacturers as part of this initiative. The remarks were made during the Triangular Committee's general assembly, held in Brussels from September 21 to 23, where politicians and business leaders from Asia, North America, and Europe gathered. Suntory's overseas sales accounted for about 50% of its total revenue for the fiscal year ending December 2023, highlighting the significance of its international operations. Shinagawa noted India's growing population and expanding drinking culture as promising factors for future growth. However, he acknowledged the challenges posed by high tariffs on alcoholic beverages in the country. Currently, Suntory is focused on blending whiskey in India, with future plans to eventually handle distillation. This would allow the company to export to regions such as the Middle East and East Africa. He also mentioned the emergence of local manufacturers capable of producing malt whiskey in India, stating, "If we provide technical support, we can secure high-quality products." To advance this strategy, he emphasized the search for partnerships with local companies, including potential investment opportunities. #japan #suntory #india #food #beverage https://lnkd.in/gwm2iFjT

For small to mid-sized food manufacturers, targeting areas where large companies are less likely to venture can be a crucial strategy. One such example is Eikodo Factory, a candy maker in Ogaki City, Gifu Prefecture, which demonstrates how flexibility in production can be a key strength for smaller businesses. Eikodo Factory specializes in making herb-based candy, using natural ingredients like rosemary and lemongrass. These herbs, sourced from a domestic farm called Potager Garden, provide a refreshing and relaxing flavor profile. The company’s CEO, Tsutomu Suzuki, explains that while large-scale production is not possible due to the limited availability of domestic ingredients, this very limitation creates opportunities for smaller manufacturers. #japan #food #candy #snack https://lnkd.in/gVGrYiZp

🌍 Ever heard of mottainai もったいない, the Japanese art of minimizing waste? 🌱 This profound concept is deeply rooted in Japanese culture, emphasizing the importance of reducing, reusing, and recycling. Whether it's reusing sink water or the exquisite art of kintsugi—repairing pottery with gold—Japan has truly mastered the philosophy of making the most out of every resource (see picture below). 💫 And now, we're thrilled to bring the spirit of mottainai to the Utrecht region! 🚀 By supporting international companies that are pioneers in circularity, we're helping them establish and expand their operations here, right in the heart of the Netherlands. Utrecht is rapidly becoming a hub for sustainability, innovation, and the circular economy. ♻️ Take URW Europa B.V., for example—an innovative company that’s breathing new life into old car parts, turning what was once considered waste into valuable resources. 🚗♻️ These forward-thinking initiatives are exactly what make Utrecht a leading player in the mottainai movement across Europe! In Earth Valley, we’re committed to building a future where waste is a thing of the past, and every resource is treasured and reused. Let's work together to create a world where sustainability is not just a goal, but a way of life. ✨ Join us in making Utrecht the mottainai capital of Europe! 💚 #mottainai #circulareconomy #UtrechtRegion #sustainability #innovation marie kondo | Anna Elferink | Netherlands Foreign Investment Agency

“We’ve always done it this way” In Székesfehérvár at a forum organized by MGYOSZ/BusinessHungary I took part in an exciting roundtable discussion with several employers. It was a continuation of our joint action plan preparatory work, to be launched in November. In the first half of the workshop, the organizers presented the results of the past 6 months’ work about the anticipated structural changes in the labor force, the trends affecting the Hungarian labor market and their anticipated consequences by 2035. The report will be published and made available to employers in the coming weeks. Several timely and influential topics were discussed. A significant change is foreseen that will impact the future of education and may also affect the employees’ professional training, since companies need specialized, skilled workers. However, it is important to remember that this is not possible without structural and mindset changes. It will not work with the same methods, because as Heraclitus said circa 500 BC, the only constant is change. This is true even today. We can start, either as an organization or at a personal level, on a new path, possibly well outside our comfort zone. I’m very happy with this initiative and I am proud to have been able to represent ALPLA Group. Let’s build the future together. Join us. 🚀 More details: Adrienn Bálint #alpla #familyofpioneers #mgyosz #future #development #education #labormarket
