Japan Store Program
The “JAPAN STORE” has been launched! It’s a store that places and showcases products from Japanese sellers on overseas marketplaces. By participating in the JAPAN STORE program, you can expect an increase in product exposure to customers overseas.


What is the JAPAN STORE program?
It’s a program*1 run by the Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) and Amazon to support Japanese companies hoping to sell overseas.
Launched under the name “JAPAN STORE”, it places and showcases products*2 from Japanese sellers on overseas marketplaces.
Currently, it has launched in the following marketplaces.
Click here for stores on Amazon.com (US) and
here
for stores on Amazon.co.uk (UK). Since it is also featured on “Amazon Business,” a purchasing website for corporations and sole proprietors on overseas marketplaces, it is possible that you’ll receive bulk purchases from corporate and sole proprietor customers.
Various support is available for sellers who’ve passed the screening*3 after applying. Helpful content for expanding and promoting sales will be provided, including increasing product exposure and recognition by making placements on the JAPAN STORE, implementing online marketing, and providing information on participating in offline events by JETRO that are scheduled to be held locally. Furthermore, if you participate with the Premium Plan (paid)*4, there will be credits that you can use for sponsored ads, and you’ll have access to the services of an agency that specializes in creating new product detail pages. Especially if you’ve never listed before, support from Amazon Global Selling representatives for listing your products will help you start selling overseas with confidence. For details, please check “Benefits of participating in the JAPAN STORE program.”

“Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, visiting from overseas and other prefectures was restricted, and the drastic decrease in tourists led to a dramatic decline in store sales. Under these circumstances, the stable income from global selling on Amazon was a big help, and we decided to focus even more on global selling. Participating in the JAPAN STORE program has increased our exposure on Amazon.com. ” - YAMASAN Co., Ltd. (Food Sales)
“With domestic demand plateauing, we were just starting to think about expanding the scale of our business when we were called on by Amazon. We were under the impression that global selling would be pretty difficult to navigate, but we received support for complicated procedures like tariffs and it’s been very helpful. ” - Fifty Square Co., Ltd. (Headphone Cover Sales)
You can read about sellers’ experiences participating in the JAPAN STORE program from About Amazon’s “Amazon Helping SMBs Evolve Through DX Support, Vol.23: To Deliver Made in Japan Quality to the World” on About Amazon.

Benefits of participating in the JAPAN STORE program

Product exposure
The JAPAN STORE will display store banner advertisements on each marketplace’s top page and search results on the website and marketing emails for the store will be sent to customers, so the store will receive a high degree of exposure. Even products that have not gone through global selling before can be expected to attract customers when placed on the JAPAN STORE.

Get support when listing for the first time
If you’ve never listed before, Amazon Global Selling representatives will provide support so you can start selling. Also, you’ll be introduced to service providers that can support you when dealing with challenges that are unique to global selling (including obtaining local certification and shipping, etc.).

Helpful content provided to increase sales
We provide helpful content so you can increase sales, including providing methods to manage advertising and improve purchase sales conversion rates (improving product detail pages, showing how to use FBA, etc.), showing how to set coupons and participate in deals, and providing guidance on best-selling products.

Participate in local offline events
With the cooperation of JETRO, you can participate in local offline events and introduce JAPAN STORE with your placed products to customers.
Reference: Here's what it looked like at the offline event “JAPAN Fes,” which was held on October 2022 in New York (USA)
