Japan is a Pet Loving Market

Currently 32% of Japanese households own a pet. While this statistic simply indicates that one out of three households have a pet including small animals such as fish and turtles, there are clear signs that the market is very aware and adjusting to these pet lovers’ demands.

Readers perhaps are familiar with novelty news that exemplify merely select segments of the Japanese pet market such as the recent opening of a pet cemetery hall in Osaka, and the increasing environmental concern with Japan being the top market for smuggled exotic animals. As for trends in the main sector of the market, there is an increase in demand for pet owners seeking pet friendly apartments who are pressuring the apartment industry to revise regulations. Also there is a trend towards cafes and restaurants catering to the increasing canine and cat loving audience.

Determining what these pet owners need next might be your next business opportunity in Japan.

Japanese Trash is a Commodity

Currently there are persons in countries such as Afghanistan and China that are profiting from the buying and selling of Japanese trash. In Afghanistan, there are merchants that buy, fix, and sell old working and broken electronics that were thrown away as trash in Japan. In China, to support the present unmatched soaring demand for metals and plastics for local manufacturing and construction projects, there are trash buyers searching through local Japanese dump sites seeking these materials. This is a big business, not just a couple of guys picking recyclable trash for pocket money.

One man’s trash is definitely one man’s treasure—another unforeseen lesson learned to succeed in business with Japan.
