Japan’s BBQ charcoal briquette market is expected to grow at a CAGR of about 3.7% through 2030. The country’s deep-rooted culinary traditions, such as yakitori and robatayaki, continue to sustain demand for high-quality charcoal. Yet, urbanization and limited outdoor space are key restraints, restricting large-scale BBQ activities. Opportunities are emerging in compact, quick-light briquettes tailored for balcony or tabletop grills. Environmentally safe and odorless briquettes are trending as consumers become more eco-conscious. Additionally, imports of sustainable biomass briquettes from Southeast Asia are increasing, reflecting Japan’s interest in low-carbon, renewable fuel sources. Manufacturers focused on branding and innovative packaging are better positioned in Japan’s quality-sensitive retail market.
