Japanese restaurants and bars are not the only ones that have been hit hard by the new lockdowns. Food suppliers and producers, which have not been able to do business with their usual clients, are trying to find new sales channels, such as mobile sales and online, to directly connect to consumers.
Food Supply, a vegetable and fruit wholesaler in Tokyo’s Ota Ward started a drive-through greengrocer. One popular item is a set of about 20 kinds of vegetables and fruits and the store attracts hundreds of visitors some days. Customers open their vehicle’s trunks and have staff load items in cardboard boxes into them. It is a smart way to prevent infections, too.
