The aim of this article is to identify the conditions of the expansion into the organic sector of the Asian market. The subjects of the study are companies from the organic food distribution sector operating in Poland. The following scientific methods were used: computer-assisted telephone interview, individual in-depth interview and literature analysis. Moreover, a case study analysis from the mature, Italian organic market is presented which was based on an interview conducted with organic professionals from Bioagricoop in 2017. In the research, the following areas are taken into consideration: the organic market situa-tion in different countries in Asia, motives and barriers to the expansion into Asian markets, problems with certification on a few Asian organic markets and recommendations for the European distributors who want to export to Asia. The author hopes that the findings will be useful to managers in the rapidly developing and highly competitive organic business.
