Could you tell us what led you to introduce STANDAGE's automated trading service this time?<\/h2>\n

We at SPACECOOL are a startup company dedicated to developing products utilizing cutting-edge technology. Since our founding, we have been exploring business opportunities both domestically and internationally, but one challenge we faced was the practical aspects of export operations. We lacked the internal infrastructure to handle trade practices, and while business development was progressing, we were confronted with the reality that export operations required a significant amount of time and expertise.<\/p>\n

Ideally, the best course of action would be to strengthen our internal structure by hiring a customs broker. However, for a startup like ours, that option wasn't realistic. That's when we came across STANDAGE's "Omakase Trade" service. The fact that we could outsource all of our trade operations, plus that it was far more cost-effective than hiring a new employee, were the deciding factors in our decision to implement it. The fact that it was recommended by a trustworthy major logistics company also gave us great peace of mind.<\/p>\n

What exactly did it entail?<\/h2>\n

Although we are currently in the initial stages of implementation, we are already receiving comprehensive support from STANDAGE regarding all aspects of trade operations. What is particularly noteworthy is that STANDAGE is not just a logistics company. We feel that the partnership we can expect, which includes not only export procedures but also STANDAGE's overseas market network and support for developing sales channels, is a major attraction that other companies do not offer.
We're not simply offering "outsourcing services"; we're working with the expectation that we can combine our products with STANDAGE's business scheme and even help develop new markets together.<\/p>\n

What effects have you seen since implementing it?<\/h2>\n

While we are still in the process of verifying and building the system's effectiveness, what we clearly feel is that it has enabled us to make more effective use of our resources. By being freed from the complex trade procedures that require specialized knowledge, we can now concentrate on product development and overseas sales activities, which are our true priorities.
Depending on future developments, we believe that securing new export markets and sales channels with STANDAGE's support could become a reality.<\/p>\n

What kind of support do you expect from Omakase Trading in the future?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Our ideal goal is to establish a system that allows us to complete all trade operations in-house. One of our goals is for our company to be self-sufficient by the time our contract with STANDAGE ends. At the same time, we aim for a relationship that goes beyond a simple outsourcing contract, where we can leverage STANDAGE's market development capabilities to co-create new businesses.
For example, even if the outsourcing relationship ends in two or four years, I genuinely envision a future where we can develop an export business with annual sales of several billion yen together with STANDAGE.<\/p>\n

Comment from Mr. Kijima of SPACECOOL<\/span><\/h2>\n

"Omakase Trading" is an incredibly reassuring service for startups like ours. It allows us to confidently entrust complex trade operations to them at a lower cost than hiring specialized personnel. Furthermore, they are not just a logistics company; they offer advice from a sales perspective and a holistic business view, which is a unique advantage that other companies don't have. I would definitely recommend this service to any company considering overseas expansion.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":7469,"template":"","purpose":[203],"implementation":[205],"jirei_industry":[206],"place":[211,210],"jirei_product":[281],"country":[],"topic_label":[],"acf":[],"topic":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/jirei\/6597"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/jirei"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/jirei"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7469"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6597"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"purpose","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/purpose?post=6597"},{"taxonomy":"implementation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/implementation?post=6597"},{"taxonomy":"jirei_industry","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/jirei_industry?post=6597"},{"taxonomy":"place","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/place?post=6597"},{"taxonomy":"jirei_product","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/jirei_product?post=6597"},{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=6597"},{"taxonomy":"topic_label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic_label?post=6597"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
