The 5th annual Japanese Wagyu campaign, "Deep Dive into the Wonders of Japanese Wagyu -Farm to Our Table-," launched on November 15th, 2024 in the United States by J-LEC and JFOODO
Sharing never-before-told stories around farmer's meticulous practices of raising cattle, the goal of this year's promotion is to uncover why Japanese Wagyu is considered the world's best beef and elevate consumer awareness around the specialty ingredient. An acclaimed Los Angeles chef and journalist were sent to Japan to interview Japanese farmers and film an educational video for this campaign. Other highlights include the addition of Miami, menus at multiple STK locations and the participation of 20 Benihana restaurants within the four cities. This will be the first time Benihana has ever offered Japanese Wagyu.
With a goal of deepening the understanding of the American consumer, Japanese Wagyu will have a month-long expanded representation on dining menus in target cities - starting on November 15th in New York City and Los Angeles, and December 2nd in San Francisco and Miami. Focusing on the "why" behind Japanese Wagyu's rich flavor and esteemed status, this year's campaign continues to highlight talented chefs who are developing new experiences using a wide variety of Japanese Wagyu cuts and unique culinary applications. Exclusive lifestyle events showcasing the special Japanese Wagyu dishes developed by partner chefs will be held in New York City and Los Angeles mid-November. Featuring a short film crafted for this campaign and starring a partner chef, guests will learn first-hand about the meticulous raising process for Japanese Wagyu cattle.
