The Problem
Western brands don't fail in Japan for lack of quality. They fail at three gates that can't be crossed with translation software.
Japan's press-release platforms require releases written in Japanese. Not translated — written. A release that reads foreign is a release that gets skipped.
Japanese media has its own release structure, honorifics, timing customs and taboos. Getting them wrong doesn't just fail — it marks you as an outsider.
No Japanese website, no Japanese materials, no one answering in Japanese — to Japanese buyers and journalists, you don't exist yet. Presence must be built, not assumed.
Packages
Every deliverable is digital or delivered inside Japan through our production network. You approve everything with English side-by-side previews.

Prices exclude VAT where applicable. Print runs above included volumes quoted at cost + handling. Trade-show kits ordered within 4 weeks of the show carry a rush surcharge — deadlines in Japan are absolute, and we plan backwards from your move-in day. Editorial coverage is never guaranteed by anyone honest; see FAQ.
How it works
A structured intake form and, if you like, a 30-minute call — during your working day. We extract what Japanese media and buyers will actually care about.
Every Japanese deliverable comes with an English mirror version, so you approve meaning, not mystery characters. Revisions included.
Distribution, publishing, printing, venue delivery — executed inside Japan by our network. You receive an English report with links and proof.
“A press release is not a translation problem. It is a trust ritual. We perform it natively — so your brand enters Japan as a guest who knows the house rules.”
Doko Shibagaki — Founder & CEO, Canjo Inc. (Fukuoka, Japan)
搬入日厳守
Trade-show move-in days in Japan are absolute. If your show is less than 8 weeks away, start now — we plan backwards from your booth number and move-in date, and your materials are waiting at the venue when you land.

No. Overseas companies can distribute press releases in Japan without a local entity. We handle account setup, the required Japanese-language writing, and distribution — published under your brand's name.
Japanese platforms require releases written in Japanese, and journalists expect a specific structure, tone and etiquette. A translated release reads as foreign — and gets skipped. Yours will be written natively, from scratch, following Japanese press conventions.
No — and be wary of anyone who says yes. Journalists decide what they cover. What we control is craft: a natively-written release on Japan's largest press network, plus a Japanese media kit so interested journalists can research you without a language barrier. That's what maximizes pickup probability.
Launch Release: typically 7–10 business days from briefing to distribution. Landing pages: about 2 weeks. Trade-show kits: contact us at least 4 weeks before your show — rush options exist at a surcharge.
English-first, end to end: briefing, side-by-side draft previews, reports. And because we work European hours, you get same-day replies during your business day.
Booth graphics, POP displays, banners and brochures — designed to Japanese trade-show conventions, printed in Japan, and delivered to the venue on your designated move-in day, labeled with your booth number. You fly in with a suitcase; your booth is already in the building.
