Numerous organisations have been striving to convey the unique appeal of Japanese Wagyu, and there is no doubt that the Japan Livestock Products Export Promotion Council in particular has been putting tremendous effort into expanding the growth of Japanese Wagyu overseas.

For the first time in 5 years, the ‘Japanese Wagyu Beef Round Cuts Seminar’ returned to Australia with insightful presentations, wagyu cutting demonstrations, and networking sessions for representatives in the food industry to deepen their knowledge as well as expand their network of suppliers and partners. 

The event kicked off at Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel Sydney on January 30th, followed by Amora Hotel Brisbane on February 2nd, which attracted around 90 and 70 attendees respectively, including international and domestic meat producers and distributors, plus restaurant, hospitality, and media professionals. 

After the opening address, a presentation provided valuable information about the distinctive characteristics of Japanese Wagyu, along with quality control, as well as a QR code for instant access to a digital profile of the wagyu, including the breed, quality grade and pedigree. 

The highlight of the event was the exclusive wagyu cutting demonstration by the special guest, Mr. Tanaka, who showcased his seamless meat-cutting techniques and presented his insights into different cuts.

The latter part of the event was a networking session, which allowed attendees to meet the suppliers from Japan and build professional connections.  

Both events were successful in conveying the unique properties of wagyu, promoting and strengthening the industry in Australia.
