Japan is a country with a highly developed industrial economy and is one of the leading countries in the world in terms of trade volume. The country has a number of formidable export sectors, including electronics, automobiles and machinery. In terms of total value, exports from Japan pre-pandemic totaled approximately $2.1 trillion in 2016. The top five export destinations for Japan were the United States, China, Canada, Australia and Germany, respectively.
Japan’s geopolitical location has played a significant role in its export performance. The country is a member of the United Nations, the G7 group of leading industrialized nations and the APEC forum. Additionally, Japan is a member of the ASEAN Economic Community and the Regional Cooperation Framework. These various partnerships and organizations have helped Japan to develop and expand its export marketplaces.
One of the key factors that has contributed to Japan’s success as an exporter is its proactive approach to export promotion. The country has a number of flagship export programs, including the Japan Eximbank International Cooperation Program, the Japan Fund for Global Partnership and the Japan Export Development Bank. These programs provide funding and support to companies that are looking to export their products overseas.
