Wellness Food Promotion Association Renamed to 'Japan Wellness Industry Association (JWIA)' to Expand Scope

The Wellness Food Promotion Association has officially changed its name to the Japan Wellness Industry Association (JWIA). This transition marks an expansion from a food-centric focus to the entire wellness industry, including medical care, exercise, sleep, mental care, and living environments. Under the leadership of Chairman Yasuo Otani, the association aims to build a foundation for a wellness society by promoting evidence-based products and services, creating certification mechanisms, and fostering cross-industry networks to support healthy longevity in Japan's aging society.
