From the Kinki Region to the World: Collaborative Project Empowers Businesses for Global Success
ZenGroup株式会社 / ZenGroup Inc.
Fast growing e-commerce company based in Japan (Osaka)
In collaboration with the Small and Medium Enterprise Agency Kinki Regional Headquarters, we will jointly assist businesses in the Kinki region in exploring new overseas markets through E-commerce. The main objectives of this initiative are as follows:
?Supporting businesses in the Kinki region to explore new overseas markets through participation in our cross-border e-commerce mall ZenPlus.
?Establish an environment where businesses can effectively communicate appealing information about their products and services to overseas markets, not only for inbound sales through tourism but also through "THE KANSAI PREMIUM SELECTION," showcasing places that can be experienced in Japan.
?Simplify export procedures by allowing businesses to send products to ZenGroup's domestic warehouse for orders from overseas customers, completing transactions through domestic delivery, domestic acquisition, and yen-based settlement.
?Provide comprehensive support to businesses, including translation of listing product information, handling inquiries from overseas, and customer support.
Furthermore, In 2025, the Osaka-Kansai Expo will be held in Yumeshima, Osaka. It is estimated that out of approximately 28.2 million attendees, over 10% or around 3.5 million visitors are expected to be from overseas.

Through these efforts, we aim to support businesses in the Kinki region in smoothly expanding their operations in overseas markets and provide promotional services to ensure that businesses and their products and regions are known in advance, encouraging inboard tourists and customers abroad to continue purchasing products through cross-border e-commerce even after returning home.
