November 8, 2007 - Sapporo

CS Sapporo Commercial Specialist Misa Shimizu organized the GolfUSA Sapporo Fair on November 8, 2007. The event promoted U.S. manufactured golf products, such as swing analyzer software, trajectory analyzers, laser distance measuring devices, clubs, and self-balance golf carts. Five Japanese agents representing the U.S. products exhibited at this one-day event held in the auditorium of the U.S. Consulate General. Hokkaido's golf market is significant: it has 147 golf courses, which ranks the region #1 for the number of courses in Japan. Hokkaido is also one of the most popular golf tour destinations in Japan. It attracts not only domestic golfers but international golfers from Taiwan and other Asian countries as well. The event drew an audience of forty golf club managers, professional golfers, teaching pros, and golf ranch owners. The event was covered by a local golf journal and local radio stations.
