Over the past two decades Japan’s restaurant landscape has been profoundly reshaped by the nation’s phenomenal industrialization and burgeoning affluence. Demographic shifts, including smaller households and more working women, have also contributed to the dining-out boom.

As living standards and disposable incomes have soared, commercial food service has assumed an increasingly vital role in the work-oriented lives of the Japanese. According to recent figures, away-from-home food sales in Japan grew nearly 50 percent since 1980, from 15. 8 trillion yen, or $70 billion, to 23. trillion yen, or $163 billion, last year. Brazil experienced one of its worst economic, social and political crises in the 1980s that led to the migration of many Brazilians to other countries. Among them, many Japanese-descent Brazilians decided to work in Japan as temporary migrant workers.

Opposite to that of Brazil, Japan was experiencing the height of its bubble economy during the 1980s. And it did not have enough workers to fill the increasing need for labour of its industries. To respond to the country’s needs, Japan was forced to allow the entry of foreign workers.

In 1990, Japan amended the Immigration Control Law to allow Japanese-descent foreigners (second generation descendants and third generation descendants) and their spouses to come to the country to work for a long period of time. Their close ties with Japan and affinity by blood made them acceptable foreign workers in the country. Visa for the fourth generation Japanese descendants was granted only to those who were accompanied by their third-generation Japanese-descent parents.

As of the end of 1998, the number of registered Brazilians in Japan reached 222, 217 corresponding to 14. % of the total registered foreigners in that year. In 2009, the number of Brazilians in Japan reached 316, 000. Brazilians correspond to the third biggest group of immigrants in Japan after the Koreans and the Chinese.
