Heritage & Earth
We support companies across food, agriculture, natural resources, and more—centered on intermediation for imports of Brazilian products. From company matching and market entry to partner search, we help Brazil–Japan business in both directions. As a former Senior Advisor at the Commercial Section of the Embassy of Brazil in Tokyo, the network and trust built over many years underpin your expansion.
Our Philosophy
For many years I worked in the Commercial Section of the Embassy of Brazil in Japan, promoting exports of Brazilian products. I developed deep familiarity with producers across Brazil, the latest trends in food, and industry structure—working at the forefront of official engagements and market opening.
After leaving the embassy, I continued to support Brazil–Japan business through import intermediation for honey and propolis, on-the-ground research for Japanese clients, and more. With resource prices still climbing, Brazil offers opportunities that can give both countries new options.

01
Years alongside government stakeholders and market-opening work at the embassy gave us a grounded, credible lens for vetting products—assessing value, production story, and supply stability together—so you can move toward partnerships built to last.
02
From food and crop growers to suppliers of natural resources and materials, relationships nationwide and first-hand intelligence gathered in the field are the backbone of how we connect sound products and partners with corporate buyers.
03
We interpret Japanese decision-making and Brazilian culture and negotiation norms for both sides, narrowing gaps in expectation so projects can advance with clarity and confidence.
We combine intermediation and advisory services that link Brazil and Japan, tailoring support to your stage and objectives.

From food and agricultural goods to natural resources and industrial materials, we work with producers and partners on the ground to facilitate imports from Brazil into Japan. As your window between markets, we support product selection, negotiation of terms, and day-to-day progress on corporate deals.

We introduce candidate partners in Brazil for Japanese companies, and help Brazilian firms find counterparts in Japan—drawing on relationships built since our embassy years and a nationwide network on the ground.
