May 11, 2022

The Japanese government has taken part in Canada’s largest food fair for the first time in 15 years. It’s part of an effort to raise food exports to 5 trillion yen, or nearly 40 billion dollars, by 2030.

The Restaurants Canada Show opened in Toronto on Monday. The three-day event features more than 500 booths showcasing cuisines from around the world.

The Japanese government teamed up with the Japan External Trade Organization to set up a booth.

They are serving up a range of regional specialties, including striped jack from Ehime, sake brewed in Fukushima, and premium beef from Iwate.

The booth is also holding live demonstrations, including a fish-cleaning show and a demonstration of an automatic rice-ball maker.
