- Culture Values networking and personal relationships. The work day often ends later than in Northern Europe.
- Lunch Break 2:00 PM - 3:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Never call during the 2:00 PM - 4:00 PM lunch window. The best times are 11:00 AM - 1:30 PM or 5:00 PM - 6:30 PM. Spanish business culture is highly relational; expect to spend time on personal introductions. Note that the city significantly slows down during the month of August.
Nagoya Business Pulse
- 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.
