From March 8-10, the Grinding Technology Exhibition was held at the Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Center in Chiba, Japan. Abrasivestocks brought along corporate materials and product information from its partner companies, Shaoxing Ziyuan Abrasives Co., Ltd., Jiaozuo Jinshengwei Fluorochemical Co., Ltd., and Zibo Kerun Abrasives Co., Ltd., as well as relevant materials from Abrasivestocks. On the first day of the exhibition, foot traffic was good, with many clients visiting the Abrasivestocks booth and a high frequency of inquiries, especially regarding the products from Ziyuan, Jinshengwei, and Kerun. By the end of the first day, nearly half of the brochures had been distributed. During the exhibition, Abrasivestocks staff member Yuning live-streamed the event through the Abrasivestocks video account. Yuning suggested that domestic companies should seize opportunities to expand abroad in 2023. As the global economy improves, demand is gradually recovering, and overseas markets are awaiting exploration by companies. However, it’s essential to prepare adequately before venturing out. About the Japanese Market Japan's grinding industry has always been at the forefront, with many well-known brands in tools and equipment. The Japanese market has high standards for product quality; compared to price, they emphasize product quality and details. Additionally, Japanese companies are highly systematic and rigorous in selecting partners. If Chinese companies wish to collaborate, they need to prepare company materials, product introductions (in English and Japanese), and product inspection reports in advance. Only after all materials pass review can sample testing be conducted. The selection to procurement process can take more than three months. Moreover, for safety reasons, Japanese companies usually start with smaller initial purchase volumes.
