What We Do

The foundation of KOSAI SHOJI's planned business is cross-border trade — the import and export of physical goods between Japan and markets in China and broader Asia.

Our planned product scope includes daily goods, lifestyle items, and health-related living products.

Planned product categories:

• Daily household goods and home living products
• Health-conscious lifestyle and wellness items
• Personal care and beauty products made in Japan
• Food and beverage goods (subject to applicable regulations)
• Seasonal and regional specialty products from Japanese producers

We are currently in the preparation phase. Specific trade agreements and logistics partnerships are being developed in advance of operations.

Moving a product across borders is only part of the challenge. To succeed in a new market, that product also needs to communicate clearly in the local cultural and commercial context.

We plan to assist Japanese brands and producers in adapting their products for target markets.

Planned localization services:

• Packaging adaptation and multilingual labeling support
• Brand name and product name localization for Chinese-speaking markets
• Messaging and positioning adjustment for target audiences
• Compliance review for import labeling requirements
• Cultural consulting for product presentation and storytelling

Localization services are planned to be developed in close collaboration with producers.

Many Japanese SMEs and regional producers possess products that could resonate strongly with consumers in China or Southeast Asia — but lack the knowledge, contacts, or capacity to pursue overseas markets on their own.

KOSAI SHOJI plans to provide market entry support services tailored to smaller producers.

Planned support areas:

• Market research and feasibility assessment for target regions
• Identification and introduction of local distribution partners
• Export documentation and customs compliance guidance
• Online channel entry planning (e.g., Chinese e-commerce platforms)
• Ongoing trade coordination and communication bridging

This service is specifically designed with Japan's small and medium-sized enterprises in mind.
