Cool EMS service solves your shipping problems!
Case 1.Sending Japanese “Osechi” to a family member overseas.
Individual customer
Mr. A stays overseas for his business. He expects to be overseas on New Year’s Day. Therefore, his family in Japan sends him frozen Osechi, a traditional New Year’s dish in Japan. The family is glad that they are able to send froze items overseas from a local post office. Mr. A savors with his colleagues the taste of Japan he cannot get overseas. Like Mr. A’s family, both individual customers and corporate customers can send frozen/chilled items without complicated processes such as membership registration. Also, there is no minimum order quantity. This is a popular feature of Cool EMS!
Case 2.Sending fresh fish to a restaurant overseas
Customer in fishing industry
A customer sends fish he catches himself to local Japanese restaurants overseas. He says, “Cool EMS is good because I can fill seasonal orders from overseas restaurants all year round, and I can get feedback directly from the customers.” As the popularity of Japanese foods is growing, he plans to increase the volume of shipments.
Case 3.Sending a research sample to a partner organization overseas
Customer at a research institute
A customer has been personally bringing overseas research samples that need to be kept chilled. She starts using Cool EMS because it does not have a minimum order quantity. As this service enables her to plan the delivery day with the partner organization, she uses Cool EMS on a regular basis!
Note: You may need an export license in Japan and an import license at the destination, or other documents depending on the contents.
Case 4.Sending items to individual customers overseas.
e-commerce seller
Sweets made in Japan are currently getting popularity overseas. Increasingly, individual customers purchase the items online. Mr. B, an e-commerce seller, starts using Cool EMS to meet customer needs. The delivery staff in overseas will contact an addressee in advance of the delivery, which is convenient for the addressee. Mr. B says that the number of orders from overseas is increasing thanks to positive reviews from customers.
