The demand for Kazakh flaxseed oil in Japan turned out to be significantly higher than expected - Japanese consumers highly appreciated the quality of this product, which, according to Anton Kim, director of the Jateco company, is particularly popular due to its health-improving properties.Today, Kazakh flaxseed oil has already gained the trust of the Japanese and has become an integral part of their daily diet. Japan's annual demand for linseed oil reaches about 10 thousand tons, which significantly exceeds current supplies from Kazakhstan. In order to respond to the growing demand, Jateco plans to increase imports of Kazakh linseed oil to 3 thousand tons per year in the near future, and also consider the possibility of expanding supplies of safflower and cottonseed oils.Logistics issues became one of the key topics at the meeting.

So, in January-August, 93 tons of oil worth 122.4 thousand US dollars were exported to Japan, which is 4.5 times higher than in the same period last year.
