JETRO's Web Site

The Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) was established by the Japanese government in 1958 as the nation's principal organization for the comprehensive implementation of trade policy.

Today, JETRO places a strong emphasis on the promotion of foreign investment entering Japan. Attracting foreign investment is a key strategy for stimulating domestic employment and revitalizing the Japanese economy. JETRO also provides small and medium-sized enterprises with support for their international trade and investment activities, and thereby stimulate the economies of East Asia and in fact the entire world. In addition, we help developing nations nurture their parts/components supply industries, support industrial development programs between regional areas of Japan and other countries, and promote cooperation between industries in Japan and other developed nations.
