In Toyama Prefecture, where Russia has the largest transaction value as an export destination from the prefecture, the used car export business, which accounts for the majority of the transaction value, is affected by the fact that orders from the local area cannot be received.
A used car export and sales company in Imizu City, Toyama Prefecture, usually exports about 100 used cars to Vladivostok, Russia, etc. in a month, but since the end of last month, orders from Russian customers have stopped. It means that.
The company sees that the main factor is that customers are stalling purchases due to the plunge in the Russian currency, the ruble, and although it is exporting the amount already ordered, the outlook for future orders is clear. It means that there is no such thing.
Nawab Ali Belam, the owner of a used car export and sales company, said, "Before the war, I received a lot of orders and contacts every day, but I'm in trouble if I don't have a job. There were times, but now I just have to wait. I want the war to end soon. "
According to Osaka Customs Fushiki Customs Branch, Russia had the largest export value of 56 billion yen from Toyama prefecture to overseas countries last year, of which more than 70% was used cars.
The Toyama Prefecture Location and Trade Division commented, "We may have a greater impact depending on the Russian economy, so we would like to keep an eye on trends."
