日本食品产业在华投资区位选择的实证分析:基于产业细分特征与投资阶段差异

Location Choices of Japanese Food Manufacturers in China:from Perspective of Sub Industries and Sub Periods

本文通过细分产业与投资阶段两个维度深入分析了日本食品产业在华投资区位选择的差异与变化。日资食品加工业主要投资在拥有海港、农业产出丰富,而且离日本距离较近的省份,饮料制造业则选择人均GDP高的省份。从1992-1995年投资阶段到1996-2003年投资阶段,工资水平、人均GDP对区位选择行为的影响显著性增强,而与日本距离这一因素的重要性下降。

This paper examines the location choices of Japanese food manufacturers in China, with special focus on sub industries and sub periods. For agricultural food product processors, per capita GDP is not an important factor to be considered in their location choices. Seaport and distance to Japan are not important determinants for beverage manufacturers. Furthermore, it divides the whole research period into two sub periods, 1992-1995 and 1996-2003. In the first period, raw materials and distance to Japan are identified as important factors attracting Japanese food manufacturers in China. In the second period, wages and per capita GDP become statistically significant but distance to Japan has no effect.
