Promoting Quality in Food Exports: A New Era

In the realm of global food export, Japanese manufacturers are now navigating significant challenges. Recognizing the need to adapt to stringent demands, LegalTech Group Inc. has launched a new service titled "HyperJ × Tokkyo.AI" in collaboration with JAPAN MADE. This initiative focuses on addressing two major obstacles: quality certification and the risk of technological infringement.

The Dual Challenges of Food Exportation

1. Rising Demands for Quality and Origin Certification
Many countries, particularly in regions like the EU, Middle East, and Asia, are tightening regulations surrounding food safety, sustainable sourcing, and traceability. Factors such as halal certification, vegan labeling, ESG compliance, and CO₂ emission disclosures are making it imperative for exporters to provide substantial proof of quality and origin.

2. Risk of Technology Imitation During OEM Production
Many manufacturers find that crucial preservation techniques, unique packaging structures, and innovative formulations can be vulnerable to theft. Without clear differentiation, products may fall victim to price competition, squeezing margins severely.

Introducing HyperJ × Tokkyo.AI

HyperJ and Tokkyo.AI aim to tackle these pressing issues through a unified approach:

• - HyperJ: This blockchain-based service certifies manufacturing histories, ingredient details, and origin information on a per-product basis, utilizing NFT and QR code technology. By scanning a QR code, international buyers can instantly access product histories, with the capacity to display ESG-related data, including halal certifications and sustainable material usage.

• - Tokkyo.AI: This aspect of the service assists businesses in the application process for patents related to packaging and formulation technologies. It uses AI to visualize features that differentiate a product from competitors, turning insights into effective sales materials, ensuring that intellectual property is fortified against imitation while lowering susceptibility to price competition.

Real-World Applications

One mid-sized seasoning manufacturer illustrates the service's potential:

• - By implementing HyperJ, they certified their ingredient sources, manufacturing methods, and packaging data for their export products targeting Southeast Asia.
• - As a result of their successful negotiations with local OEM producers, they utilized Tokkyo.AI to file patents for their packaging technology, establishing a competitive edge.

The outcome? Increased adoption rates from retailers in the export destination and a simultaneous reduction in imitation risks.

Key Benefits of Implementation

• - Trust through Certification: Gaining the confidence of export entities through enforced quality, safety, and authenticity proof.
• - Enhanced Negotiation Power: Strengthened bargaining positions with overseas partners and buyers.
• - Long-Term Brand Development: Clear documentation of technological advantages allows for sustainable brand development through intellectual property protection.

Future Prospects

Looking ahead, LegalTech Group plans to extend support to various exporters, including frozen foods, instant meals, and traditional food producers. The intention is to create industry-specific templates coupled with active rollout support. Collaborations with export promotion organizations and local municipalities are also in the pipeline.

Conclusion

The HyperJ × Tokkyo.AI initiative is setting new standards in food exports by ensuring transparency and safeguarding technological advancements. LegalTech Group is committed to enabling Japan's food industry to achieve both trust and differentiation in the global market. Türkiye's food sector is poised to leverage this innovative infrastructure to thrive in international markets effectively.
