This is the second attempt for Beyond Meat to enter the Japanese market, and in 2019, Mitsui & Co., Ltd. attempted to sell Beyond Meat products in Japan, but the plan fell through (the reason not disclosed). The meat substitute market in Japan has changed significantly since 2019 and is expected to enter the market again with the aim of revitalizing the market.
