According to statistics compiled by the Japanese Government, the GDP in 2017 showed a 1.7% increase. Although the low-temperature industry in 2017 did not register sizable growth, reflecting the stable economy, overall demand for low-temperature equipment grew significantly, above all thanks to demand from small-scale stores centering on convenience and drugstores, that related to physical distribution linking cold chains, extension of expressways, reinforcement of physical distribution centers, etc.
