Sapporo Business Pulse

  • Culture Hardworking and resilient. Influenced by its cold climate and seasonal industries.
  • Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
  • Pro Tip Reach out between 9:30 AM and 11:30 AM. Business culture is professional and steady. In winter, be mindful that travel and some local operations may be affected by snow. Punctuality and standard Japanese professional protocols are highly respected here.

Tokyo Business Pulse

  • Culture Consensus-based and very formal. Respect for hierarchy and "Meishi Kōkan" (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.
