Japan Wet Pet Food Market Regional Analysis:

The leading distribution channel for pet food in Japan is mainly because of imports; specialty pet food, and in a few cases, secondary wholesaler providers to retailers. In the case of Japanese manufacturers that have production facilities abroad, the products are imported directly within the company or through its subsidiaries and then distributed to retailers through wholesalers as described above. Although there are cases where retailers buy directly from importers, these cases are limited. Supermarkets and pharmacies are also important players in pet food distribution in Japan.
