We want to share high-quality Japanese products with the world!
In Japan, the quality and excellency of local products are well known, however, they might not be as well recognized in other parts of the world, especially in developing countries.
Many potential clients are interested in purchasing Japanese products, but due to language barriers and concerns over international payment and shipment, they give up on this idea.
We aim to use the power of the Internet to overcome all of the language, logistics, and payment difficulties to share Japanese products, design, technology, culture, and hospitality with the world!
■ Being number one
We strive to be number one! No matter how unfavorable the situation is, if the whole team continues to work together with a common purpose to be the best, we can, without a doubt, achieve our goals. We aim to become an unbeatable team that is always ready to take on new challenges.
■ The "Getting Things Done" mindset
Believing that success will simply come with time might not always be the best way to go. By setting up specific goals and breaking them down into months, weeks, and days, we can have a clear idea of what we need to do right now to be successful.
■ Determination
We never make excuses and always tackle challenges head-on. The possibility will not disappear unless you give up. Rather than thinking "I can't do it" or "It's too difficult" we always stay positive and think "What can I do to make it happen?". With the "I can do it" mindset and strong motivation, you will always be able to find new paths and solutions.

From Interviewer's EyesInterview
"I want to expand our distribution channels all over the world and improve customer service skills."
-Mathieu Provencal
ー Please describe your current job responsibilities.
I am the Assistant Manager of the Overseas Sales team that deals with selling used cars to Europe and Africa. Our main business is to find and propose vehicles at Japanese auctions that meet customer demands. I make sure to reply to each inquiry immediately. Generally speaking, the number of photos displayed of cars at auctions is limited. However, in our case, we can describe the car conditions in detail by taking pictures of it at the venue done by our dedicated staff. This can be considered to be one of our strengths. By responding promptly and courteously to customer inquiries and meeting their requests, I believe we can provide excellent customer service.
ー Why do you think your job is rewarding?
I find it rewarding when I can propose the perfect car while understanding the cultural background of customers around the world. With our extensive knowledge of the used car market, our sales staff search for the right car, while analyzing the regulations and popular car models of a country. For instance, hybrid cars are popular in the UK, left-hand drive cars are preferred in Europe, and cheap but durable Toyota vehicles are in demand in Africa. The specifications required for each city also differ.
When I joined the company, I didn’t have any knowledge about cars, so I tried to gather information by listening to our customers’ requests. I can now share my experience with my peers and focus on more managerial tasks to come up with excellent proposals for our clients.
ー Please tell us some professional skills you have gained at Carpaydiem.
The company is growing, and as such, working in a team has become more important than doing things independently. Now, as an Assistant Manager, I'm thinking about how to provide a comfortable working environment for my colleagues while improving the sales aspect of the whole company. Also, compared to general Japanese companies, we have an “open” culture where we can speak our minds. Things get done very quickly at our company. I feel as though I can continue to grow and improve my skills at Carpaydiem.
ー Please tell us what you would say to those who are thinking about joining the company!
If you want to take on new challenges or improve your professional skills, you have come to the right place! It's a fast-paced environment, but I think you can learn a lot and grow professionally. Even if you can’t speak Japanese, as long as you can use English, and are interested in applying, don't hesitate to contact us!
