Tianjin Business Pulse
- Culture Major port city. Practical, industrial, and trade-oriented.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Aim for 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM. As a major northern port, business is practical and industrial. Close ties with Beijing mean a similar emphasis on hierarchy and formal protocol. Avoid the 12-1:30 PM lunch break and major public holidays.
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.
