New Ippin mall offers Japanese goods

An eCommerce company that sells printer inks and sanitary napkins, C-Connect, has launched Ippin, an online shopping mall that specialises in direct sales and distribution from Japan to other countries.

Ippin not only sells products made in Japan, but also “Produced by Japan” and “Popular in Japan” items. Customers can buy directly from 18 regions and countries, though the initial target is mainly China and Southeast Asian countries.

Categories include food, fashion, cosmetics, children’s and baby items, and electric appliances.
Independent websites are provided for each country, such as China, Singapore and Malaysia, with recommended item rankings and payment methods (16 currencies) to suit the market, such as credit cards, Alipay and Paypal.

Users can choose from three languages (English, Chinese and Japanese) with more to be introduced.

C-Connect was founded in 2009.
