Market research

The Japanese market has countless dark sides due to its opacity, its strong traditional connotation, the large size and its strong lack of homogeneity between metropolis and areas of the province. For example, success in Tokyo and Kanto area does not always allow to replicate success in Kansai (Osaka), an area that produces a GDP comparable to that of Canada.

Importer selection

The local partner, whether the importer-distributor (exclusive or not) or the business partner in the investment, is the key to the success of a strategy on Japan. Choosing the right partner or changing it without delay usually makes the difference between the company that breaks through in Japan and the one that suffers the distance with this important market. SINTESI facilitates the selection, the choice and follow-up to ensure the highest success rate.
