We start with the flavour, production method and story behind a drink. Conversations may cover an existing range or a collaboration with a rights holder. The publicly announced Annin Miru project with Meiri Shurui and WAIN99 is one example of this connection.
Our Taiwan work connects wholesale conversations with bars, restaurants and specialist shops, alongside Xiaojiuya in Taipei. We look at a venue’s concept, food and serving style to shape a useful introduction, supported by product information and potential tastings.
We welcome European drinks producers, importers and distributors interested in Japan or Taiwan, as well as brands exploring Europe. The starting point is specific: destination country, product fit, prospective channels and supply conditions.
We want to explore how a product can earn a place on a menu or shelf beyond its launch. Regular listings, seasonal ideas and serving suggestions can all be part of the discussion. Quantities, timing and commercial terms are agreed for each product and market.
Share the product range, intended countries and current route to market.
Discuss channel fit, audience and positioning.
