✦ What We Do

Our Services

Sourcing from Japan

We find the product, verify it and buy it on your behalf, whether that is food, vehicles, machinery or pre-owned branded goods. Where stock moves through the closed dealer auctions, our secondhand dealer licence lets us buy there directly rather than at retail.

Partner Matching & Deal Support

We find Japanese suppliers or buyers and make the introduction. How far we stay involved after that is your call — we can step back once you have the contact, or stay through negotiation and the transaction itself, interpreting as we go.

Inspection & Buying Support

Trade at a distance turns on whether anyone has actually seen the goods. We inspect on site, attend suppliers and auctions with you, and sit in on meetings at trade fairs so nothing is agreed through a translation you cannot check.

Customs & Logistics

Customs procedures, destination regulations and certification, and booking the vessel. The declarations themselves are prepared by the forwarders and licensed brokers we work with regularly, while you deal with us throughout.

Market Entry

We take the enquiry from the point where Japan is still only an idea, and we can tell you how the market and the ground realities look. The execution — company formation and the like — is handled by specialists we partner with. We say which is which up front.

✦ Global Network

Connecting Japan to the World

We trade into the Middle East, Europe, North Africa and Asia, working with counterparties we have dealt with before rather than names found for the occasion. Where a destination is new to us we will say so, and we will tell you what that means for the timeline before you commit.

✦ Questions

Frequently Asked

Food such as Wagyu and matcha, used vehicles, construction and agricultural machinery, forklifts, and pre-owned branded goods including watches and bags. We also bring materials and finished goods into Japan from the Mediterranean and North Africa. If a category is not listed, ask — the answer is often yes, and where it is no we will say so.

It depends entirely on the category, the price band and how specific the requirement is. We do not quote a standard turnaround, because one that held for every enquiry would not be true. We give you an honest read at the outset. You also choose whether we step back after the introduction or stay through the negotiation.

Yes, as a single point of contact: customs procedures, destination regulations and certification, and booking the vessel. The declarations themselves are prepared by the forwarders and licensed brokers we work with regularly, because that work is better done by people who do only that.

Automotive, construction and agricultural machinery, food and beverage, jewellery and pre-owned branded goods, and raw materials such as hides. Our secondhand dealer licence gives us access to the closed Japanese dealer auctions, which is where a large part of the used-goods stock actually moves.
