"Shopping in Japan is driven by our commitment to provide authentic Japanese gear and products to customers worldwide, a philosophy we have embraced since our inception. Initially, we started as a typical small souvenir and gift shop near Yokohama Bay Side Marina, catering mainly to foreign tourists in the area. However, as we witnessed the positive response from our customers, we decided to extend our dedication beyond the borders of Japan.
In 2009, we took a significant leap and transformed ourselves from a local gift shop into a comprehensive online e-commerce store. This expansion allowed us to gain valuable experience and insights into customer preferences through various auction sites like eBay. Armed with this knowledge, we laid the foundation for our user-friendly website, Shopping in Japan, which was launched a year later.
Today, our website enables us to elevate our commitment to delivering genuine Japanese-made merchandise to a whole new level. By directly collaborating with manufacturers, we offer people outside of Japan access to a wide array of Japanese Domestic Market (JDM) products at fair prices. Whether you seek a high-quality Japanese-made watch, a rare collectible not typically available overseas, or anything else, Shopping in Japan stands as your premium source."
