Market Readiness

Not every supplier is ready for Japan. But we help the right ones get there. Giving suppliers the assurance they’ll succeed, before committing to the cost of expansion.

Japan's cannabinoid market demands more than your standard COA

We encourage every engagement with TrueImports begins with market readiness consulting. This phase helps qualified companies evaluate feasibility, close compliance gaps, and build a clear, informed go-to-market strategy before committing to certification and the costs associated with entering into Japan.
