Global Expansion Network was established in 2001, drawing on the previous consulting activities and network of its members. In 2006, GEN was incorporated as a Japanese company.
Our purpose is to assist and represent producers and exporters on the Japanese market. People experienced in sales and marketing, market research, distribution, logistics and supply chain management, as well as finance, form the organisation.
Our expertise falls within four main areas: Business Development, Sales and Marketing Support, Human Resources, and Interim Management. In particular we can offer assistance to companies that wish to enter and succeed on the Japanese market, or that want to strengthen their existing organisation in Japan. |
