Brand building

Japan-BB

MLA’s office in Japan, through brand building activities, aim to strengthen the positioning of Australian beef with promotions targeting consumers and customers and therefore maintain Australia’s position as the preferred imported beef.

True Aussie was launched in Japan in mid-2014 and today more than 50% of the Australian beef sold at retail carries the new logo, alongside many thousands of foodservice outlets.

Whilst one of the key strategies remains to grow penetration of True Aussie at point of purchase, MLA Japan also conducts non-branded business development work designed to improve brand loyalty with the trade, including education seminars and workshops, technical support and training, new product and menu development.
