Abstract—We imported wines in Europe, Australia, America, etc. is the mainstream in Japan. The increasing of the total sales of winery in Hokkaido (Japan) is also expanding into the service industry to produce wine to use 100% domestic grapes, using a Hokkaido Input-Output Table in 33 Sections, that lead to revitalization of local communities. Hokkaido Japan is an area with the same GDP as the Czech Republic, Portugal, and New Zealand. (1)Assume that the existing quantity of wine production increases to the level of the red wine consumption boom in Japan (2000); Hokkaido GDP will increase by about 0.01% (-1.9% in 2009). (2) Assume that the production of high-value-added wine is increased; Hokkaido GDP will be raised more efficiently than in case (1). (3) Assume that a wine maker may build and serve a hotel and a restaurant by the investment fund, Hokkaido GDP will be raised more efficiently than in case (2). We need increased wine production and an increase in high-value-added wine production. A regional improvement policy is important for building a useful infrastructure. That is, an improved infrastructure for physical distribution and finance, and an expansion in industries related to the wine industry.

Index Terms—ripple effects, input-output, sustainable regional economy, regional investment
