Print book market size in Japan 2015-2024

Published by ÌÇÐÄÆƽâ°æ Research Department, Mar 4, 2025

The sales value of printed books in Japan amounted to billion Japanese yen in 2024, which was a decrease of **** billion yen compared to the previous year. Printed books and printed magazines together constitute the print publishing market. In 2021, the printed books segment was able to grow for the first time in 15 years as a result of the increased demand from people who spent more time at home amid the COVID-19 pandemic. While the situation was similar in 2020, the temporary closure of book stores during that year had a negative effect on the sales figures.
