Yokohama Green Expo faces low awareness one year out

A Kanagawa Prefectural Government survey last autumn found less than 50% of residents outside Yokohama aware of the Yokohama Green Expo. The event is one year away.

One year before the Yokohama Green Expo, awareness remains low. A survey conducted last autumn by the Kanagawa Prefectural Government showed that less than 50% of residents in the prefecture, excluding Yokohama, were aware of the event. The Japan Times reported this on March 20. Keywords include Yokohama Green Expo, Yokohama, gardening, and flowers. This finding highlights challenges in public recognition ahead of the expo.
