In spring of 2010 we started the so called "WELCOME shop" program. This name comes from the declaration that shops make: "We Welcome Foreign Buyers", meaning that they promise to provide corteous service for orders and inquiries received from outside of Japan.

So, these shops are very eager to serve shoppers outside of Japan - very international-minded and forward-thinking.

It is especially exciting to watch some of the shops working hard on learning polite and easy-to-understand natural English. Some of them go a step further and learn other languages too.

Very soon we will have a global marketplace, where shoppers around the world will be able to buy anything from anywhere. Safely and smoothly. This is the ideal that drives us.
