Commerce Media Inc. is pleased to announce that it has entered into a partnership with Global-e Japan Inc. (Head office: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Ran Almog; hereinafter referred to as "Global-e"), a world-leading cross-border e-commerce platform provider.
Background and purpose of the partnership
The growth of e-commerce in the global market is accelerating, and for Japanese businesses, expanding into overseas markets has become an important strategy. However, there are many barriers, such as differences in language and payment methods, as well as country-specific regulations, tax procedures, and logistics issues, making it difficult to expand overseas smoothly.
We have supported domestic e-commerce businesses and provided them with the support they need for their e-commerce businesses, including full support from building to running e-commerce sites, including Shopify, and various consulting services. We also provide support for businesses aiming to expand into overseas markets, such as developing the backend required for overseas operations and localizing for each country. Through this partnership with Global-e, we will further strengthen our support system so that more businesses can smoothly enter overseas markets.
In addition, with this partnership, we will begin offering operation agency services for overseas e-commerce markets. By providing a wide range of support, from establishing an operation system suited to the local market, acting as an agent for customer support and order processing, to conducting post-sales market analysis, we will help businesses accelerate their growth in overseas markets.
Details of the partnership
Through this partnership, we will provide the following cross-border e-commerce support to businesses who use our services.
- Global-e's solutions : Comprehensive cross-border e-commerce functionality including multilingual support, local currency payments, and tax and customs calculations
- Building an e-commerce store for overseas markets : Building a store using Shopify and establishing an overseas operating structure
- Overseas operation agency services : Multilingual store operation, order processing and customer support agency

Through this partnership, we hope to create an environment that enables Japanese e-commerce businesses to more smoothly enter overseas markets, contributing to the further development of the e-commerce market.
We will continue to strengthen our collaboration with Global-e and support the global expansion of e-commerce businesses.

As the EC market expands globally, in order for businesses to achieve stable growth in overseas markets, it is essential to seamlessly integrate not only sales but also back-office operations such as logistics, payments, and taxes. The solutions provided by Global-e Japan are a powerful partner that resolves the challenges faced by companies engaged in cross-border EC and enables smooth overseas expansion.
We have worked closely with many business owners to build and operate their e-commerce websites.
