TOKYO, GINZA - WeAgri, based in the upscale district of Ginza, Tokyo, is proud to manage "Ginza Sweets Singapore," an online platform dedicated to exporting Japan's finest desserts to Singapore. As Halloween draws near, we are excited to infuse the festive spirit with a touch of Japanese elegance.

WeAgri Co., Ltd. (Headquartered in Chuo-ku, Tokyo; CEO Ken Negishi), a company within the Techfirm Group specializing in agricultural and marine product distribution solutions, will begin exporting popular confectionery stores and other confectionery manufacturers, which are unable to independently expand their overseas markets, in response to the overseas demand for Japanese sweets amidst the decline in inbound demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Leveraging their cold chain built for exporting agricultural and marine products, marketing strategies that capture local preferences, and networks for real sales at local retail stores, they will establish their cross-border e-commerce platform, "Ginza Sweets," which was launched in September of this year, as a distribution channel to enhance the brand power of Japanese sweets. With a sales target of 500 million yen by the end of 2026, they aim to further expand their unique export platform utilizing IT.
