I prefer foreign brands
than domestic brands.
I rather pay attention
to the clothes that I wear.
I use good foodstuffs
even if the price is a little expensive.
I am picky about cars.
In the category of fashion/food, the trend is “escape from tradition”.
z In the category of food, it was found in 20’s/30’s that they are trying to bring brand-new foreign food into the home-cooking. In each country,
the food cooked by their mothers’ generation is traditional and typical each country’s local food, however, those 20’s/30’s feel that the dining
table only with traditional food is “boring” and they start to adopt foreign taste/foreign food that has more beautiful looking and novel feeling.
From the transcript of FGI
“I’d like to cook something that my mom doesn’t cook often. My mom cooks only
Chinese food and I’d like to cook western food myself such as spaghetti, salad,
etc. at least on weekends. (woman/Hong Kong)
Thailand
“Foreign cooking has good looking. Beautiful for eyes. When I see usual Indian
food, I feel bored. So thinking of variety, other country’s cooking is better. (woman/India)
Singapore
Hong Kong
India
z Casualization is advanced in fashion, and in India, it was found that the opportunity
to wear traditional “sari” was drastically reduced.
z Since “Casualization” includes Japanese origin “KAWAII” fashion, Casualization is not equal to
Westernization, but the situation is different depending on the area.

Electrical home appliances penetrated to a good level.
z Among the survey target of middle class+, penetration was found higher than 80% for Electrical home appliances such as TV, Refrigerator,
Air-conditioner, Mobile phone, etc.
z However, most of the Digital devices were purchased in recent 3-4 years and such product’s function seems to be limited to reduce the cost.

z However, such evaluation is given in various aspect such as abundant product type in the category, high quality in designing, durability, etc.
and it is different depending on the product category. As previously mentioned, “KAWAII” fashion is one example and the awareness/interest
level has big difference depending on the area.
z In some product categories such as luxury car and smartphone, there are some cases that western brands are more highly evaluated than
Japanese brands from the viewpoint of status feeling and designing.

The abundant choice of Japanese products evokes consumption happiness.
z Especially in food category, the abundant variation in Japanese products is highly evaluated.
z In one category, there is a lot of sub-brands, flavor, etc. and it allows to let people try many types from each product lineup which has its own charm,
or people can choose through their preference: such abundant choice creates effective gimmick to let those people realize “consumption happiness”.
From the transcript of FGI
“I love Japanese sweets. More attractive sweets than those of other countries’. Abundant choice.”
(woman/Hong Kong)
“Spaghetti source of Japan is also good. Really many choices.” (woman/Hong Kong)
“Japanese salad dressing has many types, sesame type, grain type, etc. and I can choose anything I want.”
(woman/Thailand)
Weakness is price and lack of information.
z In common, Japanese products has high-price image and that is disincentive upon purchase.
z Also, in some housing products category and food category in India,
basically the information related to Japanese products is very limited and

z Out of the 4 cities for survey, while some sympathy is found in 3 countries, Hong Kong, Singapore and Bangkok as same “Asian” member toward
Japan and Korea, Mumbai showed some different tendency.
From the transcript of FGI
“Japanese food taste is in our acceptable taste.” (woman/Bangkok)
“Korean or Japanese brand size rather fits me.” (woman/Hong Kong)
“Europeans are all big, so I prefer Korean fashion.” (woman/Bangkok)

z Starting with Electrical home appliances, Japanese products are accepted with positive image, however, basically the countries perceived
as developed countries are western countries and the interest toward Asia seems to be sparse.
z Purchase intention toward Japanese products is high though, they recognize strongly that Japanese products’ price is out of their reach.
Therefore, in India, their shopping attitude is first to purchase minimum spec. product and then to add some functions when they can afford.
z Also in the food category, they have some ambiguous interest, but they have extremely little information. They don’t know how too cook,
of course, they don’t know what sort of menu is available nor they understand what sort of taste the Japanese food is.
Not only from the food material and menu, but it is necessary to run education campaign of Japanese cooking/food concept and method in
more depth extensively.
From the transcript of FGI
“I don’t know what ingredients are used in Japanese food. I don’t understand the taste.” (woman/Mumbai)
“If the taste is of someone’s like, Japanese food may be good. But I have never tasted it.” (woman/Mumbai)
“There are little number of Japanese restaurants. Ads are also very little.” (woman/Mumbai)
Opportunities of Japanese products and issues to tackle ①
【General】
11
Source of Japanese product value is reliability to assured quality
z The most important and basic value of Japanese products found common in all the categories is absolute reliability that Japanese products are
made without any corner-cutting, fraud, fake and are made under right quality control promising the performance.
z Especially in Asian countries, where there are still many quality unstable products/services, reliability and security feeling is perceived with
more valuable image than that in Japan.
z As previously stated, evaluation toward western brands is higher in some cases in terms of status feeling and designing, however,
regarding this “reliability toward quality”, Japan’s positioning is well established.
z Based on this reliability and by adding benefit required product by product as per each country’s needs, Japanese products will be successful
in gaining more fans in those countries.

In some cases, moderate function is more effective than exhaustive high function
z As previously mentioned, Japanese products are perceived with high price image in common and that is disincentive upon purchase.
z For instance, Korean products are not of high function as Japanese products, but have limited function desired with reduced price and
Koreans manufacturers seem to be trying to penetrate their products into each country’s market with aggressive promotion.
From the transcript of FGI
“I use Samsung at home and Samsung does better promotion. If the promotion is better than Japanese products, I would
buy Korean products”. (woman/Singapore)
“Regarding Mobile phone, I also like Samsung as the price is cheap. I like to buy the Mobile phone from Samsung, the one
with 8MPixel Camera. I buy Mobile phone by the camera function attached.” (man/Bangkok)
“ I feel like Japanese Electrical home appliances’ manufacturers don’t do so much promotion.” (woman/Singapore)
z Rather than making the price high by realizing high function in every aspect, assuring the advancement in the function interested by
consumers, yet, giving up the other functions, and the reduced price product may work more effectively in many cases.
“Compact and contrived” product well matches with Japan’s image
z In Hong Kong and Singapore, Japanese product & information
is more penetrated than in Mumbai. Regarding Housing products/
equipments, they have good image toward Japanese products,
good/compact and must-be-excellent.
z Image of Japanese manufacturing, skillfulness, precision, exactitude
is not limited to Housing products/equipments, but is good matching
with products to which function is concentrated with compactness.
From the transcript of FGI
“There are many small houses in Japan. Since they have limited space
compared with other countries, how to save space is well thought on
Japanese products in terms of design as well.” (woman/Hong Kong)
“Japanese Electrical home appliances are good as they are compact
and space-saving.” (woman/Singapore)
Abundant product type is big advantage
z Abundant product type is the evidence of matured consumption society. We should take this advantage of Japan as matured consumption society.

Key is how to provide information.
z In Hong Kong, Bangkok & Singapore, Japanese restaurants are popular as places for dining out. Popularity of Japanese food is backed up by
affluent contact opportunities and information. For home cooking, interest toward brand-new foreign food is becoming obvious and since
Japanese food is highly evaluated from its taste, looks, healthiness, if we provide more “how-to-cook” information along with easy-to-cook
processed foods, now is a good chance for Japanese food to enter home-cooking market in Asian countries.
From the transcript of FGI
“When dining out, western food is not of fun, just as Spaghetti, Pasta, etc., while Japanese food has a lot of choices.
Regarding appetizers, I can choose little by little. That is fun.” (woman/Hong Kong)
“Japanese food tastes very good. Desert as well, tastes very good. Taste is such different.” (woman/Singapore)
“I tried to cook Tempura at home buying flour, however, I can’t make it well as I taste in restaurants. Taste is no
good. That is why I eat out.” (woman/Singapore)

Push to penetrate Japanese products via export of contents
z It was realized well that Korean cultures/products are penetrated in Hong Kong, Bangkok and Singapore.
z Typically in Bangkok, CD/DVD sold at store front was dominated by Korean CD/DVD and Korean drama was popular as TV programs.
z Such status is not only related to contents market, but also the clothes often seen on TV celebrities in dramas is pushing forward
the popularity of Korean fashion, it is presumed that it has also been affecting fashion, food culture, interior, and other various area.
z On the other hand, regarding Japanese contents, TV drama is well penetrated in Hong Kong, however, in Bangkok, “O-shin” DVID is
still placed on top of Japanese DVD shelf and new ones are far left behind. J-POP boom also finished in Singapore and Bangkok.
z Japanese contents is popular in terms of video game and cartoon, but the image created by those as Japan tends to be quite limited.
z By pushing Japanese contents export further, which can convey more general Japan’s “now”, creating understanding & familiarity toward
Japan’s lifestyle and product brand image will become tailwind for Japanese entire industry.
