Japanese firms ready to seize opportunities

Japanese companies expect to find success with their high-tech products during the China International Import Expo, as demand in China grows and bilateral ties between the countries deepen, Japanese exhibitors said.

AGC Group, a glass and industrial ceramics maker, is aiming to build its reputation among Chinese consumers and looks forward to cooperation in a wider range of areas with Chinese companies after the inaugural import expo.

Toshihiro Ueda, chief representative in China for AGC Group, said that in recent months his attention has centered solely on the expo.
