7. You can translate your site but....
You can hire a translator to translate your site into Japanese, but you still need SEO services as well as an intermediary to communicate with your potential buyer. This site offers you that translation, the seo and communication medium.

8. We can bridge your communication gap

9. Official Channels have limitations
Selling your products through official means (government organizations) has limitations. For certain products, yes but for others, this site offers you the opportunity to take your message straight to the Japanese consumers.
I wonder how many people do go to their local chamber of commerce or ministry of trade asking them to look for Japanese buyers of their products?

10. This service is low cost.
We feel that the fee for this service is reasonable when compared with the expense involved in translating your site and promoting it in Japan, or even the cost of exhibiting at a trade fair for 3 days.

Considering the number of companies and products made in Japan, we at first thought it would be impossible to create a catalog of products made in Japan.
However, for various reasons, we came to a conclusion that Japanese companies wishing to export their products does not mean all companies. In addition due to language barriers etc., some companies in Japan still find it difficult to publish information about their products and services in languages other than Japanese. This site aims at eleviating some of the bottlenecks that have hitherto hindered location of Japanese companies and products easily.

Because we have included categories like machinery, industrial supplies, electrical and electronic products, hydraulic and pnuematic equipment, transportation equipment like cars and trucks, optical equipment, etc. At first site it would appear like a machinery and equipment directory. As a matter of fact, our intention is to cover the needs of everyone from chopstics to netsuke, from heavy duty construction equipment to Nishikigoi.
If you did not find what you are looking for, please bear with us as we try to compile a more comprehensive list. Thank You for visiting our site.
