Abstract

This study focused on apples, grapes, and pears, which Hong Kong imported. LA/AIDS was estimated by using trade statistics from 2003 to 2017. The results of this study indicate that Japanese fruits hold a competitive advantage over the fruits from other countries for their high quality. Improving price competitiveness and quality competitiveness at the same time could be a key for the successful promotion of Japanese fruits in international markets.
