Rio de Janeiro Business Pulse

  • Culture Relaxed but hardworking. Creative and media industries are prominent.
  • Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Best call times are 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM and 2:30 PM to 4:30 PM. "Cariocas" (Rio locals) value an informal and friendly start to meetings. Always spend a few minutes on social pleasantries. Avoid scheduling anything for Friday afternoon as the city begins its weekend transition early.

Yokohama Business Pulse

  • Culture Professional, industrial, and closely linked to Tokyo. Values long-term corporate stability.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Ideal window is 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. As Japan's largest port, business is practical and trade-oriented. Standard Japanese etiquette (punctuality, politeness, formal protocol) is strictly followed. Avoid the 12-1 PM lunch hour at all costs.
