Osaka metropolitan area is Japan’s second most populated area after Tokyo. The area’s economic growth was underpinned by development of the pharmaceutical, chemical and electric equipment sectors. The area has a cluster of chemical industries and major strengths of the economy are healthcare, medical and pharmaceuticals industries. Goods trading activities are also spurred with presence of Osaka port, the international gateway for foreign trade, mainly Asian countries. However, the city’s economy declined in 2020 due to slowdown in private consumption and investment on the back of the COVID-19 outbreak and plummeting exports, reflecting a decline in global demand and a standstill in international tourist inflow
