In the near future, we plan to export food products to Japan. There is the demand. Firstly it is our horse meat. Also, there is interest in our food products, therefore work should be activated in this direction. I am sure that Kazakhstan’s foods, mainly agricultural products, in the near future will be on markets of Japan. As for industry, it is probably difficult to compete with Japan in investment and technological development. Therefore, we could focus on the agro-industrial complex. In Japan, horse meat produced in Kazakhstan is famous. It will be interesting to create when our product is already popular on the international market," said Deputy Chairman of the Board of NC Kazakh Export Yerdan Bekhozhin within the Kazakh-Japanese Business Forum.

Within the visit of the head of state to Japan in 2016, we had signed the agreements with the Nexia export credit agency of Japan. Now, we move forward in terms of creating cases for joint enterprises. We welcome imports of technology and innovation from Japan for further appliance by our exporters, so they could their exports capabilities," said Yerdan Bekhozhin.
