Review of Inuyama Tofu


This is a great feature piece for the PR Collaboration. The universal themes of small business up against global market forces are something that every American business person could relate to. The corner Tofu shop is dwindling in Japan as much as the independent bookstore. Western influence has changed the tastes of Japanese young people as much as McDonald's has changed the eating habits of Americans. This is a well-produced, sound rich feature and would work well in any news magazine show especially if a station could make the connection to the struggles of American independent businesses.
