FAQ

Q

What areas do you cover?

A

We currently have import transactions with Taiwan, ASEAN countries, and Europe in particular, but we can cover other countries as well. It can be more preferable for some products to be imported from other countries and we are well-informed on this issue.
As for exports we have transactions with Singapore and the UK in particular, and we have offices in both countries. We also have transactions with other countries.

Q

What products do you handle principally?

A

We import household products in particular such as furniture and miscellaneous goods and mainly export liquor and building materials.
As the products we are currently handling are all marketed as a result of clients’ requests or consultations, please feel free to inquire about other products as well.

Q

At what stage can you be of help when I am considering importing
and selling products in Japan?

A

Please contact us when you have started considering doing so.
You can import products manufactured overseas or manufacture products based on your designs in overseas plants. Given that the materials, etc. to be used can determine a country’s or a plant’s manufacturing capabilities, it is better for you to consult us at the first stage.

Q

I am interested in the export business,
but I am a beginner and do not know what to do.
Can I consult with you about such matters?

A

Yes, that is no problem.
As the Japanese market and overseas markets are different in culture, lifestyle, religion, and environment, the way you do business in Japan cannot necessarily be successful in other countries. In addition, your company’s position is also important in comparison with other global competitors. The Singapore and UK offices conduct surveys about competitors and competing products as well as provide services for transporting goods in small amounts from Japan to other countries or local sales using EC. For details, please see the JAPAND EC support service.

Q

Can you handle small lots?

A

Yes, we can.
When a small lot is transported by sea, a less than container load (LCL) shipment is considered. But as LCL is more costly, we try to lower costs as much as possible by combining different clients’ cargo shipped to Singapore and the UK in one container. For details, see the JAPAND Logistics Service.
