Posted on Jun 29, 2016 in Buy Hawaii Give Aloha, Hankyu Hawaii Fair, News
DBEDT successfully conducted the “Buy Hawaii, Give Aloha” matchmaking event on Monday, June 27, in Umeda, Osaka. Working with the Foreign Commercial Service team at the Osaka Consulate, as well as in conjunction with the International Division of the Osaka Chamber of Commerce & Industry (OCCI), nearly 50 Japanese importers and distributors were introduced to eight Hawaii companies seeking longer term distribution in the Kansai (Osaka, Kyoto and Kobe) region and beyond.
These eight companies (listed below) will join a larger contingent of Hawaii companies selling directly to consumers at the Hankyu Hawaii Fair 2016, on the 9th Floor of the Hankyu Umeda Main Store. Completely renovated two years ago, the Hankyu Umeda Main Store offers a tremendous venue to showcase Hawaii made products, hula and Hawaiian music performances from Wednesday, June 29 through Tuesday, July 5. DBEDT is very pleased to work together with Hankyu Umeda Main Store to bring Hawaii to Osaka!
