About Japan Gate Trading

At Japan Gate Trading, we specialize in bringing high‑quality, innovative products from overseas manufacturers to the Japanese market. As a trusted local partner, we bridge the gap between global brands and Japanese consumers, leveraging our expertise in both distribution and crowdfunding.

Our Mission

We believe that great ideas should transcend borders. Our mission is to empower international companies to successfully launch and scale their products in Japan. We facilitate this by:

  • Supporting crowdfunding campaigns on platforms like Makuake and CAMPFIRE
  • Managing logistics, import, and distribution
  • Providing marketing and sales expertise tailored to the Japanese market

Our Vision

We envision a future where innovative global products are seamlessly accessible to Japanese consumers. By doing so, we hope to foster a new wave of cross-border entrepreneurship — one where creativity and technology are shared and celebrated, regardless of geography.

Our Brands

Our journey began as a small shop specializing in handcrafted fresh flower leis. As we began importing works from Hawaiian artists to complement our leis, our passion evolved into a full-scale import-export business dedicated to cross-cultural exchange. Today, Lei Moana serves as our export brand, bridging Japanese traditional beauty with modern sensibilities. We curate exquisite goods that highlight Japan’s rich natural materials and timeless artisanal mastery. While our roots remain firmly planted in the warmth of handmade craft, we are honored to share the true value of Japanese craftsmanship with the world, bringing elegance and serenity to global lifestyles.

私たちの歩みは、生花を用いた手作りの「レイ」を販売する小さなお店から始まりました。ハワイのアーティストたちの作品の輸入を開始し、レイと共にその魅力を紹介する中で、国境を越えて良いものを届ける輸出入事業へと繋がっていきました。現在、Lei Moanaは日本の伝統美と現代の感性を結ぶ輸出ブランドとして、厳選された天然素材と熟練の職人技が宿る「本物の逸品」を世界へお届けする事業を準備しています。手仕事の温もりを大切にする原点はそのままに、日本の卓越したクラフトマンシップを次世代へと繋ぎ、世界中の日常に上質な彩りを提案します。
