Fukuoka-based food maker Pietro announced it will begin exporting its salad dressings to Hong Kong and Australia before year’s end.

Pietro’s overseas sales are currently concentrated in North America where the company uses contract manufacturers to make its dressings. Source: Nishinippon Shimbun 6/25
