DG TRADE is looking for EU companies with successful export experiences in Japan.

The European Commission regularly highlights concrete success stories of EU companies that have expanded internationally, including in Japan, by making use of the opportunities created by EU trade policy. For companies active on the Japanese market, these stories are a valuable way to showcase how they entered or developed their presence in Japan, what challenges they faced, and how EU tools or the EU-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement may have supported their journey. DG TRADE is therefore particularly interested in hearing from EU companies with a positive export experience in Japan. Companies willing to share their story can contact DG TRADE with a short description of their export journey, the market opportunity, the main challenges encountered and the support or EU framework that helped them along the way. DG TRADE will then assess the story and, where relevant, follow up with the company to prepare a short article for publication. A recent example is the Estonian company Artisan Honey, Baltic buzz in Japan - Trade and Economic Security which illustrates how EU businesses can successfully build opportunities in Japan.
