- Export system and facility development.
- There has been a tendency toward rising prices of domestic fruit in recent years, but there have also been fears of prices leveling out and consumption declining due to high prices. This led to the cultivation of a new market in Southeast Asia, and efforts began to export products to the region in 2004. Sales have been expanded and market surveys have been carried out through participation in domestic and international business meetings and activities to promote sales at retail stores.
- PR activities overseas
- Export initiatives in the prefecture began as early as before the war. The prefecture is currently the No. 1 producer of lemons, which were historically traded with continental Asia between the late Meiji period and early Taisho period, boosting profits and production among producers. Efforts have been made in recent years to export fruits produced in the prefecture to areas centered on Southeast Asia.
- Characteristics and strengths of businesses (producers)
- Grape cultivation began around the mid-1950s to 60s in Numakuma Town, located in eastern Hiroshima Prefecture, and efforts were made to pioneer the marketing of New Bailey A in 1967. Grapes of high and consistent quality have been produced since the end of the 1980s at modern orchards that underwent redevelopment.
