Service 01
Exclusive Distribution Rights & Brand Launch Support
We discover overseas EC brands not yet available in Japan, negotiate and secure exclusive distribution licenses, and see the brand through from launch to establishment in the Japanese market. Our dedicated EC team (running ¥20M+ monthly sales) and negotiation team with native Chinese and English speakers accompany the work all the way through — direct negotiations with brand holders, localization, and channel construction. After launch, we continue to support brand expansion, introductions to other brands, in-house transition, and brand M&A.
We also handle exclusive distribution negotiations on behalf of clients for major overseas brands — including Dutch D2C brands sponsored by football star Lionel Messi.
