Wazakura Japan comprises me, Yui, founder and manager; Yuko, marketing and product; Carmen, marketing and customer service; Naomi, design and videography; and Saori, photography and videography. Ours is a Japan-based, women-led, small e-commerce business formed by five women (four Japanese and one Spanish) with diverse skills. Our expertise spans design, photography, international commerce, translation and merchandising. But we have one thing in common: a desire to share our passion for Japanese culture and traditional crafts with new audiences overseas.
