Karachi Business Pulse
- Culture Industrial and entrepreneurial. Business often continues late into the evening.
- Lunch Break 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The work week is Monday to Saturday for many, but Friday is a half-day or has long prayer breaks (1:00 PM - 3:00 PM). Best time to reach professionals is 11:30 AM to 4:30 PM. Business culture is highly social; be prepared for extended introductions and hospitality.
Tokyo Business Pulse
- Culture Consensus-based and very formal. Respect for hierarchy and "Meishi KΕkan" (business card exchange) are central.
- Lunch Break Strictly 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip The most effective window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. Avoid the strictly observed 12-1 PM lunch hour at all costs. Late afternoon calls (4 PM - 5:30 PM) are also acceptable, but ensure you follow formal protocols and hierarchy if multiple stakeholders are on the line.
