According to a general manager of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries Department of Ofunato City Office, "Refrigerated warehousing is absolutely essential for the fishing industry. The refrigerated containers we have received from "K" Line are expected to help spur a recovery of the fishing industry in the region."
