Provision of Information on Place of Product Origin to Consumers

Since October 2011, the national government has been encouraging producers to display places of origin of fresh fishery products, mainly those caught on the Pacific side of eastern Japan so that consumers can easily understand where the relevant fishery product was caught. Related parties are providing consumers with information on inspections of fishery products for radioactive materials in an easy-to-understand manner, thereby striving to prevent harmful rumors.
