Tokyo (VNA) – Vietnamese firmsare working to bring more products to the Japan to not only increase their presence atthe over 125-million-strong market but also use their foothold there as a launch pad to reach other choosy marketsin the world.

Masan Consumer, which has successfully sold its Chin-su-branded chili sauce in Japan since August 2018, has introduced a Chin-su seasoning product collection that the firm has developed exclusively for the Japanese market.

As the success in Japan has helped Chin-su chili sauce to enter many other markets such asChina, the Republic of Korea, Australia, Europe and northern America, the firm wants to follow the same scenario for its Chin-suseasoning products.

Dan Katsuhiko, chief of office forinternational trade of AEON Group highly valued the quality of Vietnameseproducts and expressed hope that other products of Vietnam such as vegetableand aquatic products, including those from Masan, will be welcomed by Japaneseconsumers.
