For example, securing reliable local distributors, the initial investment required for exhibiting at trade shows, and preparing business negotiations and proposals in English. We considered exhibiting at trade shows, but the costs amounted to several million yen, making it unrealistic in terms of cost-effectiveness.<\/p>\n<p>Amidst these circumstances, we learned about STANDAGE&#039;s &quot;Omakase Trading&quot; service and felt that it had a system in place to provide comprehensive and practical support for our challenges. In particular, the two-year continuous support and the fact that it is designed to be easy to operate even for those of us who are not fluent in English were the deciding factors in our decision to adopt it.<\/p>\n<h2>What exactly did it entail?<\/h2>\n<p>What we value most about &quot;Leave it to us trading&quot; is that STANDAGE proactively develops markets in countries and regions that we have never had contact with before. Rather than simply providing lists or matching buyers, they act based on strategic designs tailored to the buyer&#039;s needs, which is very reassuring for us, as we are new to international trade.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_7366\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7366\" style=\"width: 550px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-7366 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/7264330-L.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"550\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/7264330-L.jpg 550w, https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/7264330-L-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/7264330-L-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/wp.standage.co.jp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/7264330-L-12x12.jpg 12w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-7366\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">One of the products being sold overseas (sanitary napkins)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Furthermore, I feel that they provide thorough support not only for initial negotiations but also for after-sales follow-up. For example, I receive specific advice on what materials to prepare after a negotiation and what kind of progress methods are effective. The approach design, which involves working on it in medium- to long-term increments of 3 to 4 months, is also a great source of reassurance, as it allows me to proceed without rushing for short-term results.<\/p>\n<h2>What effects have you seen since implementing it?<\/h2>\n<p>While we are currently in the initial stages of implementation, we are gradually beginning to see concrete results and positive feedback. Our ultimate goal is to &quot;establish a system that enables regular shipments in container units to overseas markets.&quot; Our aim is to establish a continuous business relationship, not just one-off orders.<\/p>\n<p>To that end, we are currently working on building relationships with local partner companies and agents. We have asked STANDAGE to help us successfully complete the first steps of business negotiations with local companies, and we expect to move on to concretizing contract negotiations and establishing a stable export system in the future.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-family: var(--heading--font-family); font-size: var(--heading--font-size-h2); font-weight: var(--heading--font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--heading--letter-spacing-h2); background-color: var(--global--color-background); color: var(--global--color-primary);\">What kind of support do you expect from Omakase Trading in the future?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>We are currently just at the &quot;entrance&quot; to our overseas expansion, but from here we intend to carefully and steadily build trusting relationships with overseas partners.
