Electronics exports also fell sharply, down 85%. The downturn is likely linked to new U.S. reciprocal tariffs and added duties on cars. Total auto exports to all destinations fell 19%. The overall export value from the Kyushu region declined 1% to \u00a51.0256 trillion, marking the first drop in five months. <\/span><b>Source: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.customs.go.jp\/moji\/moji_toukei\/data.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moji Customs<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/fnn_fukuoka-company-factory_2024_WEB.jpg?resize=1400%2C1050&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1400\" height=\"1050\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-166297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/fnn_fukuoka-company-factory_2024_WEB.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/fnn_fukuoka-company-factory_2024_WEB.jpg?resize=300%2C225&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/fnn_fukuoka-company-factory_2024_WEB.jpg?resize=1024%2C768&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/fnn_fukuoka-company-factory_2024_WEB.jpg?resize=768%2C576&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
