About Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO): Developing partners of Trade Nigeria Organization
The Japan External
Trade Organization (JETRO) is an Independent Administrative Institution
established by Japan Export Trade Research Organization as a nonprofit corporation
in Osaka in February 1952. It was reorganized under the Ministry of
International Trade and Industry (MITI) in 1958 (later the Ministry of Economy,
Trade and Industry or METI), and became an Independent Administrative
Institution in 2003 to consolidate Japan's efforts in export promotion. The
government has provided more than half of JETRO's annual operating budget. As
of January 2020, JETRO maintained seventy-four offices in fifty-four countries,
as well as forty-eight regional offices in Japan, with a total staff of 1,730
(998 domestic, 732 overseas). Its main office is located in the Ark Mori
Building in Akasaka, Tokyo. Initially, JETRO's activities focused mainly on
promoting exports to other countries. As exporters established themselves in
world markets and the balance of trade turned from deficit to surplus, however,
JETRO's role shifted to encompass activities that are more varied. These have
included the furtherance of mutual understanding with trading partners,
strategic investment attraction, import promotion, liaison between small
businesses in Japan and their overseas counterparts, and data dissemination.
Import promotion services have included publications, promotion of trade fairs,
seminars, and trade missions.
JETRO also provides
information and support to foreign companies looking for successful entry and
expansion in the Japanese market. JETRO provides a wide range of services, such
as timely market intelligence, extensive business development support, and
relevant business events, designed to encourage new business between foreign
companies and Japan. JETRO also provides current information on the laws and
regulations surrounding new business operation in Japan to assist companies in
expanding their business to Japan.
