The first shipment of Japanese beef reaches Taiwan after 16 years

 

 

Kanpai Group imported 200 kilograms of beef from the Miyazaki Prefecture which were distributed to businesses such as the Regent Hotel and the Breeze Center supermarkets.

Taiwan imports almost 95% of its beef. The US is the main supplier, followed by Australia and New Zealand.

In 2000, Japan exported a small amount of beef and beef products to Taiwan, 4 tons respectively, representing just about 0.01% of the total amount of beef imported by Taiwan.
