Guangzhou Business Pulse
- Culture Pragmatic and trade-focused. Known for "Canton Fair" and a deep history in international commerce.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The 12-2 PM lunch window is very important; avoid calling then. Best times are 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM and 2:30 PM - 4:30 PM. While Cantonese is the local language, Mandarin is the business standard for non-locals. Pragmatism and efficiency are highly valued in this major trade hub.

- Culture The heart of Japan's manufacturing (Toyota). Values precision and long-term stability.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Call between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM. Nagoya is the precision engineering capital; be prepared for very detailed, technical discussions. Punctuality is non-negotiable. Building a long-term, stable relationship is more important than achieving quick, one-off sales.
