About GMS

A Japan-focused support company.

GMS helps overseas companies enter and operate in Japan, and helps international visitors navigate the country — through practical, local support.

How GMS Works

A simple, practical process

GMS provides practical local support for overseas companies entering and operating in Japan, and for international visitors navigating the country.

  1. 01

    Research

    We start by understanding your goals — the market you're entering or the trip you're planning.

  2. 02

    Communication

    We bridge language and business-culture gaps between you and local partners, vendors, or venues.

  3. 03

    Coordination

    We coordinate the people, paperwork, and logistics needed on the ground in Japan.

  4. 04

    Practical Support

    We stay involved through execution, not just planning, so things actually get done.
