A considered bridge
between Japan
and Europe.
ENN Japan builds partnerships between Japan and Europe through trade, food-ingredient sourcing, food tech, and sales strategy.
To connect people and cultures across the sea — that intention lives in a single Japanese word: ENN.
In Japan there is a culture of valuing en: the belief that an encounter is never mere chance, but something born from the connection between people. Our business is built on that same belief.
Every trade begins with a single en. We build the relationship before the transaction, and carry to the world only what we would stake our own name on. That is where ENN Japan begins.
Trade & Sourcing
貿易We carry the true value of Japanese produce to the world — honoring each region and maker as we connect Japan and Europe.
Market Entry
進出We support Japanese companies expanding abroad — from Japan to Europe and Europe to Japan — drawing on local networks and hands-on experience to make entry sustainable.
Sales Strategy
戦略Partnerships that begin with trust. We do more than introduce people and companies — we understand each side’s value and take responsibility for the right match.
We handle everything from building relationships with producing regions to sourcing and supply, carrying the stories of growers and artisans to the world.
As ENN Japan’s European strategic partner, 1716 Industries leads operations and network-building across the EU and UK markets.
A journey through 47 prefectures
begins in Kyoto.
Society 47 is a Japan–UK pilot project created to carry the landscapes and cultures of Japan to the world.
Its first chapter, “Kyoto No.26,” is a starter collection built around Kyoto, the heart of matcha culture.
Beginning with a Kickstarter launch in the UK, it sets out on a journey through the stories of all 47 prefectures.
