Matching Functions
(Product Discovery and Sales Channel Development)
An extensive network cultivated over 300 years
The KOKUBU Group has connected all stakeholders as a platform supporting food distribution since our founding in 1712. Our customers span a wide range of channels cultivated over 300 years of history, including retailers, restaurants, manufacturers, and municipalities, as well as companies in different industries. We use this extensive network to hold trade fairs, matching what customers want to sell with what they want to buy, throughout Japan in a variety of formats. This provides opportunities for negotiations that lead to sales.
Area-specific trade fairs rooted in local communities
We regularly hold trade fairs sponsored by area companies, covering all of Japan from Hokkaido to Kyushu. Because KOKUBU is involved with sales channels rooted in different areas, we can propose area-specialized products and plans based on nationwide markets and trends, creating new business opportunities.
Flexible trade fairs according to product category and sales channel
In addition to area-specialized trade fairs, we hold trade fairs according to the various needs of sellers and buyers as necessary, such as for specific product categories or by sales channel. By providing flexible opportunities for meetings using our extensive network, we support product discovery and sales channel expansion for customers.
