FY2021-Q2First statedAnnual report
「In October 2020, to expand exports of Japanese agricultural, livestock and marine products, we launched Pan Pacific International Club (PPIC), a partnership organization of the PPIH Group with producers, businesses involved in exports and related organizations. For producers, PPIC enables regular business meetings and direct transaction agreements with the PPIH Group, helping secure stable destinations for shipments and potentially stabilizing shipment prices. For the PPIH Group, working and operating jointly with producers through PPIC will enable us to build an integrated value chain from upstream to downstream, secure a stable supply of products, establish a cost structure with an advantage over competitors through a simple distribution system, and offer customers a more attractive product lineup and pricing. Through PPIC, the Group, producers, the government and producer-related organizations will work together to export Japanese agricultural, livestock and marine products overseas.」
PPIC was launched in October 2020, presenting a new concept for promoting overseas exports of Japanese agricultural, livestock and marine products through coordination with producers, exporters and related organizations, direct transactions, stable sourcing and more efficient distribution.
