International fax: Sales of domestic beef in Japan are booming

Introduction: according to the Japanese economic news published on November 1, in terms of the quality assurance of domestic beef and imported beef, the Japanese believe more in the safety and reliability of domestic products At present, in the Japanese market, Japan's domestic beef wholesale price upward trend is supposed to show a strong performance This is because, under the influence of the "origin camouflage" events in Japanese market, the domestic demand for beef cattle "resume" has become increasingly strong This curriculum vitae system enables beef cattle from the birth of calves to the final slaughter and processing, and consumers can get a very clear understanding of the whole process This system naturally stimulates the market demand for beef, and the market is very active From the overall sales situation of beef market in Japan, domestic beef has driven the growth of consumption, almost reaching the market scale before the first case of BSE occurred in September 2001 In the remaining two months of this year, beef consumption in the Japanese market will further increase On October 31, the wholesale price of beef in the central wholesale market of Tokyo, Japan, rose generally High quality barbecue beef (A4 castration and cattle) per kilogram has been raised to 264 yen, 2177 yen, up 13.8% The price of a Japanese famous beef "qianze cattle" is not cheap, though only 10 of them are on the market The average price per kilogram is 1957 yen, 4.4% higher than the average price last week In Osaka Central wholesale market, another important domestic beef market, castration and A4 size of cattle were also adjusted to 1864 yen per kilogram, up about 1.4% compared with last week's average price In these two representative markets, the recovery of these two markets with the nature of price index shows that the price of beef in Japan's domestic market has definitely recovered It can be said that the market level is generally back to August 2001, that is, before the occurrence of BSE It is precisely because of the major incidents of BSE infection in Japan and the successive incidents of dealers passing off the labels of origin that a series of improvement works aiming at making the whole process of beef production transparent to the greatest extent have been carried out in Japan, such as the construction of the "resume" system for beef production and circulation, which has been spread throughout the country to ensure the safe consumption of beef Guarantees are provided When consumers understand the implementation of these measures, they will naturally focus on domestic beef in Japan But in terms of supply and demand, the market supply of beef is not ideal The number of beef on the market decreased significantly due to the slow growth of beef due to the hot summer in Japan in July and August The number of beef on the market fell again in October Affected by the strike in the West Coast ports of the United States, the amount of beef imported from foreign countries in the Japanese market has also decreased from the normal level This makes the demand pressure of domestic beef in Japan increase In some powerful big wholesalers, they usually need to guarantee a stock of beef for about 10 days, but at this stage, there is only about two days' supply of beef The Japanese pay great attention to the commercial consumption at the end of the year The so-called "business war at the end of the year" has started In order to improve their business interests, Japanese businesses began to attract customers by early consumption and more discounts Therefore, it is unfair that the sales of beef by wholesalers are good Those stores that directly face consumers are also the best-selling products, in sharp contrast to the end of last year Since September 2001, when the serious problem of BSE occurred in Japan, the Japanese beef market has experienced a slightly repeated decline in consumption However, around December 2001, Japan's beef consumption market has been steadily consolidated and recovered In terms of development, not only Japanese domestic beef, but also imported "safe" beef will be recognized and preferred by consumers in the Japanese market, opening up a broad sales market (author:) share to feed Weibo share to:
