PINAGSUSUMIKAPAN ni Trade Secretary Cristina Roque na maging trading partner ng Pilipinas ang malalaking retail at leisure services giants ng Japan

Ito ay matapos ang pakikipagpulong ni Roque sa mga opisyal ng Fast Retailing Co., Ltd. at Koshidaka Holdings sa Japan.

Layunin ng pulong na mapalakas ang posisyon ng Pilipinas bilang dynamic at diverse consumer market, partikular na sa ifast fashion, retail, at entertainment.

“The Philippines offers a strategic gateway for global brands to thrive in a dynamic and diverse consumer market, powered by a young, fashion-forward, and highly engaged population. With strong demand for fast fashion, retail, and entertainment, Japanese investors such as Fast Retailing and Koshidaka Holdings can tap into the country’s trend-driven landscape, where brand-conscious consumers prioritize sustainability, value, accessibility, and quality,” pahayag ni Roque.

“By attracting prime investments in consumer-diverse sector, the country expands choices for Filipino consumers, drives economic growth, creates jobs, and solidifies its role as a consumer-centric hub in the region,” dagdag ni Roque.

Nabatid na ang Fast Retailing Co., Ltd., ay ang parent company ng UNIQLO.

Target din ni Roque na magkaroon ng oportunidad para sa joint promotion ng sustainable fashion sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng advanced technologies at iba pa.

Itinuturing ng UNIQLO na fastest-growing market sa Southeast Asia ang Pilipinas.
