AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Japan Seafood: Pufferfish exporters are working to ease safety concerns and promote fugu overseas; chefs in Japan need years of training and a government licence to prepare the potentially deadly fish. Food Safety: Singapore caterer Gourmetz was fined S$13,000 after 45 pupils fell ill with gastroenteritis; inspections found food-storage and labelling violations. Indonesian Restaurants: The government plans to use trade offices in 33 countries to help local restaurant brands expand abroad, with five new overseas openings expected to be announced this month. Japan Beer: Regulators are probing the country’s four biggest brewers over suspected price-fixing, raising scrutiny of pricing across the market. India Beverages: PepsiCo reported broad-based growth in India, while Diageo is targeting younger consumers with Smirnoff ICE as ready-to-drink products gain attention.
